Commonly used anti-inflammatories are NSAIDS (non-steroidal anti-inflammatories)

These include: Aspirin, ibuprofen (Motrin, Advil), and Naproxen (Aleve). Other less commonly used NSAIDS are Toradol and Mobic.

Anti-inflammatories not in the NSAID family include steroids such as prednisone. Steroids are the most effective anti-inflammatory medications available but long-term systemic use has many deleterious effects.
