acemetacin and Psoriasis

acemetacin has been researched along with Psoriasis in 1 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.

Psoriasis: A common genetically determined, chronic, inflammatory skin disease characterized by rounded erythematous, dry, scaling patches. The lesions have a predilection for nails, scalp, genitalia, extensor surfaces, and the lumbosacral region. Accelerated epidermopoiesis is considered to be the fundamental pathologic feature in psoriasis.

"In a controlled double blind study the therapeutic efficacy and tolerability of [1-(p-chlorobenzoyl)-5-methoxy-2-methylindole-3-acetoxyl]-acetic acid (acemetacin, TV 1322, Rantudil¿) and indometacin were tested in 40 patients (15 male, 25 female) suffering from psoriatic arthritis in which, in a period of three weeks, the patients received 180 mg acemetacin or 150 mg indometacin daily in form of three equally divided doses."9.05[Controlled double blind study on the effectiveness and adverse effects of acemetacin and indomethacin in the treatment of psoriatic arthritis].
