acemetacin and Inflammation

acemetacin has been researched along with Inflammation in 4 studies

acemetacin : A carboxylic ester that is the carboxymethyl ester of indometacin. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, it is used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and low back pain, as well as for postoperative pain and inflammation. Its activity is due to both acemetacin and its major metabolite, indometacin.

Inflammation: A pathological process characterized by injury or destruction of tissues caused by a variety of cytologic and chemical reactions. It is usually manifested by typical signs of pain, heat, redness, swelling, and loss of function.

ExcerptRelevanceReference
"In a controlled double blind study the therapeutic efficacy and tolerability of [1-(p-chlorobenzoyl)-5-methoxy-2-methylindol-3-acetoxy] acetic acid (acemetacin, TV 1322, Rantudil¿) and tolmetin were compared in 40 patients suffering from acute and subacute painful irritant conditions in the spinal area and joints."5.05[Comparison of the therapeutic efficacy and tolerability of acemetacin and tolmetin (author's transl)]. ( Handrich, L, 1980)
"Indomethacin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used for the treatment of acute gout and inflammation."3.76Acemetacin antinociceptive mechanism is not related to NO or K+ channel pathways. ( Castañeda-Hernández, G; Chávez-Piña, AE; Gil-Flores, M; Ortiz, MI, 2010)
"Acemetacin was rapidly converted to indomethacin after its administration."1.34Mechanisms underlying the anti-inflammatory activity and gastric safety of acemetacin. ( Castañeda-Hernández, G; Chávez-Piña, AE; Dicay, M; McKnight, W; Wallace, JL, 2007)
