Amlexanox
Originally developed as an anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic agent, this small molecule inhibits enzymes involved in inflammation to reduce swelling in oral tissues. Research has explored its potential to improve metabolic conditions such as obesity and fatty liver disease by targeting inflammatory pathways.
