Urinary colics from calculosis are frequent and intense forms of pain whose current pharmacological treatment remains unsatisfactory. New and more effective drugs are needed to control symptoms and improve stone expulsion. Recent evidence suggested that the Nitric Oxide (NO) / cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)/phosphodiesterase type 5 (PDE5) system may contribute to ureteral motility influe...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES A review of all the adjuncts for intravenous regional anaesthesia concluded that there is good evidence to recommend NonSteroidal Anti-Inflammatory agents and pethidine in the dose of 30mg dose as adjuncts to intravenous regional anaesthesia. But there are no studies to compare pethidine of 30mg dose to any of the NonSteroidal Anti-Inflammatory agents. METHODS In a p...

Artificial insemination (AI) involving the placing of frozen-thawed semen directly into the jenny uterine body is associated with very low pregnancy rates. This might be because of an exacerbation of the acute response of the endometrium to sperm, as seen in mares with persistent induced mating endometritis. Pregnancy rates can be increased in such mares, however, by including anti-inflammatory...

routes of administration have been well documented, including avoidance of variable absorption rates and first-pass hepatic metabolism with oral delivery and improved therapeutic activity. In the past, skin penetration studies usually focused only on the physicochemical factors affecting the transport of drugs across the skin. However, recently, many researchers have also been considering the c...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Laparoscopic sterilization (LS) is one of the most painful procedures and pain severity varies with the selected technique, being more severe when tubes are occluded with rings. Patients submitted to LS refer PO colic pain and N-butylscopolamine and sodium dipirone, for their anti-spasmodic and analgesic properties, associated to ketoprofen with anti-inflammatory prope...

The effect of adjuvant-induced arthritis on hepatic microsomal glucuronidation was studied in the rat. Arthritis was induced by injection of Mycobacterium butyricum suspended in liquid paraffin. Vmax and the Michaelis-Menten constant values for the in vitro glucuronidation of R- and S-ketoprofen, acetaminophen, and diflunisal by liver microsomes obtained from control and adjuvant-induced arthri...

Aims: The main objective of the current research work is to develop liquisolid compacts BCS Class II drug ketoprofen with an intention enhance solubility by applying technique.
 Place and Duration Study: Smriti College Pharmaceutical Education between June 2018 2019.
 Methodology: Initially liquid medication was obtained dissolving in suitable solvent. Saturation studies were performe...

Nearly racemic ketoprofen, which satisfies the requirements for the occurrence of preferential enrichment, was spontaneously resolved into the two enantiomers by simple crystallization under nonequilibrium conditions using high concentrations.

Purpose: To enhance the solubility and dissolution characteristics of ketoprofen using various crystallization techniques. Methods: Ketoprofen crystals were prepared by various crystallization technique including spherical agglomeration (SA), spray drying (SD), freeze drying (FD) and super cooling (SC). The crystallization medium used for all the techniques consisted of water and chloroform. Re...
