Rectal aspirin--absorption and antipyretic effect.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Rectal acetylsalicylic acid was given to 14 children who had undergone open heart surgery. The effect on their temperatures was similar whether 15--30 or 30--50 mg/kg was given. Either dose was more effective than no treatment. The greatest fall in temperature occurred after 4 or 5 hours. Rectal aspirin in a triglyceride base is effective in lowering postoperative temperature. It should also be of use in treating other fevers. A dose of 20--25 mg/kg is suggested.

Study on the antipyretic activity of thyme (Thymus broussonetii) in experimental rats
Previous pharmacological essays had reported the anti-inflammatory and analgesic activities of Thymus broussonetii extracts. This current study extended these previous works and aimed at investigating the potential antipyretic effect of T. broussonetii. For that, we have tested the effect of aqueous, butanolic and ethyl acetate extracts of T. broussonetii on yeastinduced fever in rats. Our resu...

Purpose: The aqueous fruit pulp extract of Hunteria umbellata K. Schum is used traditionally for the treatment of various fevers. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the extract for antipyretic and analgesic activity, and determine its probable mechanism of action. Methods: Pyrexia was induced in rabbits by intravenous injection of 10 5 CFU of E. coli/kg. Rectal temperature was monitored ...
متن کاملInfluence of L-glutamine on aspirin-induced gastric lesions and absorptions as well as antipyretic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects of aspirin in rats and mice.
L-glutamine markedly suppressed the development of the gastric lesions induced by aspirin in pylorus-ligated rats. In non-ligated normal rats, aspirin was absorbed rapidly after administration and was maintained in the blood in high salicylate concentration thereafter. When aspirin was administered in combination with L-glutamine, the absorption of aspirin was at nearly the same level as when a...
متن کاملAntipyretic Activity of Peperomia pellucida Leaves in Rabbit
Antipyretic effects of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate soluble fractions of ethanol extract of the leaves of Peperomia pellucida (Linn.) HBK (Fam. Piperaceae) were investigated. Intraperitoneal administration of boiled milk at a dose of 0.5 ml/kg body weight in albino rabbit leads to pyrexia. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) administration of petroleum ether and ethyl acetate soluble fractions of ethan...
