The aim of this work was to develop the best formulations for naproxen suppositories. The effects of different bases and surfactants on the physicochemical characteristics of the suppositories were determined by several tests such as weight variation, melting point, assay, hardness, and release rate. All formulations met the standard criteria for tested physicochemical parameters; weight variat...

The treatment of an acute attack of classical or common migraine is sleep, an antinauseant such as metoclopramide, an analgesic, either aspirin or paracetamol, and in some patients 1 or 2 mg of ergotamine tartrate. Treatment should be given as early in the attack as possible and all drugs should, if possible, be given in a soluble or effervescent form. When vomiting occurs early in the attack, ...

OBJECTIVES We performed a phase I trial to assess the safety and tolerance of a Lactobacillus vaginal suppository for prevention of recurrent UTI. METHODS Premenopausal women with a history of recurrent UTI were randomized to use L. crispatus CTV-05 or placebo vaginal suppositories daily for five days. RESULTS 30 women were randomized (15 to L. crispatus CTV-05). No severe adverse events oc...

The potential of liquisolid systems to improve the dissolution properties of a water-insoluble agent (indomethacin) was the purpose of this survey. In this study, different formulations of liquisolid tablets using different co-solvents (non-volatile solvents) were prepared and the effect of several amounts of them on the dissolution behaviour of indomethacin was investigated. It is worth mentio...

Indomethacin, an anti-inflammatory agent used for pain, fever and inflammation, causes severe lesions in the gastrointestinal tract humans animals. For this reason, there has been increase search new compounds that can help prevent and/or alleviate these caused by indomethacin. The aim of present study is to evaluate gastroprotective effect Juglans regia administration against indomethacin indu...

Methodology: 200 patients with known problems including women men were treated this study. The complete protocol for was approved research center committee hospital. Patients randomly 50mg/day, 25mg two times/day. . Indomethacin 65 m...

introduction: indomethacin increases generation of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ros) which have a crucial role in the indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer. coenzyme q10 has an antioxidant activity on mitochondria and cell membranes and protects lipids from oxidation and is essential for stabilizing biological membranes. superoxide dismutase (sod) acts as one of the defense mechanisms ag...

PURPOSE To examine the effect of continuous epidural block initiated before thoracic surgery upon early and long-term postoperative pain. METHODS In a double-blind study, 70 patients scheduled for thoracic surgery under general anesthesia were assigned randomly to receive continuous epidural block with mepivacaine 1.5% initiated either 20 min before surgical incision (Pre group) or at complet...
