| 설명 | 국소에 작용하여 염증을 치료하고 방지하는 약. 염증을 가라앉히는 약을 말한다. 조직을 긴축-치밀하게 하여 장액과 점액의 분비를 줄이고, 표면에 있는 작은 혈관에 빈혈을 일으켜 충혈되는 것을 방지함으로써 염증적 병변을 제거하여 모든 증세를 없앤다. 대부분의 수렴제-완화제-진양제가 이에 속한다. 중요한 성분으로는 알루미늄-비스무트-아연-납화합물(병반-페르마톨-아연화-연당 등) 등이 있다. 작용에 따라 항염증진통제와 항염증효소제로 나뉜다. |

| inflammatory | <pathology> Inflammation is the reaction of living tissues to injury, infection or irritation. Inflamed tissues are characterised by pain, swelling, redness and heat. Anything that stimulates the inflammatory response is said to be inflammatory. See: inflammation. (11 Jun 1998) |

| inflammatory bowel disease | <disease> A general term that encompasses several disease processes, most commonly, ulcerative colitis and Crohn's disease. (27 Sep 1997) |
| inflammatory bowel diseases | Chronic, non-specific disorders of unknown aetiology. Includes crohn disease and ulcerative colitis. Extracolonic manifestations are often associated with inflammatory bowel disease (ibd) and involve the liver, joints and skin. (12 Dec 1998) |

| inflammatory pseudotumour | A tumour-like mass in the lungs or other sites, composed of fibrous or granulation tissue infiltrated by inflammatory cells. (05 Mar 2000) |
| inflammatory response | A part of innate immunity. Inflammation occurs when tissues are injured by viruses, bacteria, trauma, chemicals, heat, cold or any other harmful stimulus. Chemicals including bradykinin, histamine, serotonin and others are released by specialised cells. These chemicals attract tissue macrophages and white blood cells to localise in an area to engulf (phagocytize) and destroy foreign substances. A byproduct of this activity is the formation of pus--a combination of white blood cells, bacteria and foreign debris. The chemical mediators released during the inflammatory response give rise to the typical findings associated with inflammation. (27 Sep 1997) |
| inflammatory rheumatism | Rheumatoid arthritis or other cause of joint inflammation. (05 Mar 2000) |
