Hyperalgesia is normally an increase in the response to a painful stimulant. Opioid-induced hyperalgesia (OIH) is a situation frequently encountered in algology clinics. Its treatment is complicated and problematic and often requires alternative methods. A 40-year-old male patient 45 kg weighing had been diagnosed with stage IV colon cancer 2.5 years ago. He had used non-steroid antiinflammator...

A randomized study was conducted to assess the clinical and microbiological efficacies of a single 3-g dose of fosfomycin trometamol for the treatment of uncomplicated lower urinary tract infections in women compared with a 5-day regimen of cephalexin at 0.5 g four times daily. One hundred twelve women, all of whom had documented infections with bacteria sensitive to both antibiotics, were incl...

Animal models are used to research the mechanisms of pain and to mimic human pain. The purpose of this study was to determine the degree of interaction between dexketoprofen and dexibuprofen, by isobolographic analysis using the formalin orofacial assay in mice. This assay presents two-phase time course: an early short-lasting, phase I, starting immediately after the formalin injection producin...

In the title organic salt of ibuprofen with trometamol, C4H12NO3 (+)·C13H17O2 (-), the carb-oxy-lic acid group of ibuprofen has transferred its proton to the amino N atom of trometamol. In the crystal, the trometamol cations are linked via N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along [001]. To these chains are attached the ibuprofen anions via O-H⋯O and N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The chains are linked...

BACKGROUND As a result of extensive use of fluroquinlones and cephalosporins, urinary tract pathogens producing extended-spectrum beta-lactamase (ESBL) pose a considerable clinical challenge in the treatment of UTIs. In the present study we retrospectively assessed the susceptibility of E. coli strains to fosfomycin trometamol and other antibiotics commonly used for the treatment of such infect...
