However, excessive use of them can have negative health consequences on humans, and their uncontrolled disposal in ecosystems raises serious environmental issues. Electrochemical sensors offer enormous potential for the sensitive, selective, effective, and economical detection of pharmaceuticals in complicated media, surpassing the drawbacks of conventional detection techniques. An overview of the most recent advancements in electrochemical sensors that use nanoscale materials as electrode modifiers that target NSAIDs, such as metallic nanomaterials, carbon-based materials, and hybrid materials, is provided in this review. Analysis of real samples, sensor/analyte interactions, and various electrode fabrication techniques was particularly taken into consideration. The studies in the literature were summarized in detail in terms of various analytical properties, such as linearity range, limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), and detection method, among others. The experimental results were then discussed. Finally, this review discusses the potential, challenges, and opportunities in designing next-generation advanced sensing devices.en10.1016/j.electacta.2025.147392info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessNon-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugsElectrochemical sensorDrug analysisReal samplesArticle5412-s2.0-105016459921WOS:001577133100005Q1Q1
