LIPOXYGENASE INHIBITOR

A 'Lipoxygenase inhibitor' is a drug which slows down or stops the action of the lipoxygenase enzyme. More precisely, the term is almost always used to describe an inhibitor of the arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase enzyme, which transforms EFAs into leukotrienes.
Examples include:

azelastine

diethylcarbamazine

nordihydroguaiaretic acid

zileuton
