NSAIDs: How They Work. According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are the most popular drugs for treating arthritis pain. NSAIDs include ibuprofen (Motrin), naproxen (Alleve, Naprosyn), and aspirin. They work by reducing the production of substances called prostaglandins, which cause pain and inflammation in the body. NSAIDs have a dual action; they not only relieve pain, but they bring down swelling in the joints, too.
Itâs a draw. There are more than 100 types of arthritis. Some are the result of âwear and tearâ on the joints, like OA. Others are autoimmune diseases, like RA. Advil is a NSAID. It works best on autoimmune inflammatory arthritis. It reduces inflammation, which reduces pain. Tylenol works in the brain to lower pain thresholds. It works best for OA pain.
