Attacks of asthma in most children are relatively mild, but in a few they are severe and potentially fatal.1 The severity of attacks can be reduced by β-adrenoceptor stimulants, theophylline compounds and sodium cromoglycate, but when these are not effective it may be necessary to give a corticosteroid continuously. For those children who develop a severe exacerbation despite maintenance treatment, or those who get infrequent but often severe attacks that do not respond to bronchodilators, a short high-dose course of a corticosteroid can be given, and many practitioners choose to give this to their patients at home.2 However since no trials of such treatment have been performed the benefit remains unproven.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs work by non-selectively inhibiting cyclooxygenase enzymes. Evidence indicates that metabolites of the cyclooxygenase pathway play a critical role in the process of learning and memory. We evaluated whether acute naproxen treatment impairs short-term working memory, episodic memory, or semantic memory in a young, healthy adult population. Participants received a single dose of placebo or naproxen (750 mg) in random order separated by 7–10 days. Two hours following administration, participants completed five memory tasks. The administration of acute high-dose naproxen had no effect on memory in healthy young adults.
