OBJECTIVE Although indomethacin produces ductus arteriosus constriction in extremely premature newborns, a recurrent symptomatic patent ductus arteriosus (PDA) frequently develops after the initial course of indomethacin. Currently, there is little information available to determine the effectiveness of a second course of indomethacin in producing permanent ductus closure. The objective of this...

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...

Background: Testosterone and its metabolites have important roles in learning and memory. The current study has conducted to assess the effect of pre-training, post-training and pre-probe trial intrahippocampal CA1 administration of 3 alpha-anderostanediol (one of the metabolites of testosterone) and indomethacin (as 3 alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase enzyme blocker) on acquisition, consolida...

adjuvant induced arthritis is a chronic crippling, skeleton-muscular disorder having nearest approximation to human rheumatoid arthritis for which there is currently no medicine available effecting a permanent cure. even modern drugs used for the amelioration of the symptoms, offer only temporary relief and also produce severe side effects. in the indigenous system of medicine, wood of premna s...

Abstract A series of microemulsions based on oleic acid and Tween 80, modified with piperidinium surfactants, have been obtained characterized. The effect additives the size, stability, solubilization formed systems respect to hydrophilic (rhodamine B) hydrophobic (indomethacin) substances investigated. Varying components ratio has allowed preparation strongly different viscosity: from easy-flo...

Prostanoids, including prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), suppress macrophage effector functions against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. PGE2 production by monocytes infected with Mycobacterium avium complex (MAC) and its effects on intracellular mycobacterial growth were examined. Freshly obtained monocytes from healthy subjects were stimulated with lipopolysaccharide or 10(7) organisms/mL of 4 MAC strains....

background: evidences show that aloe vera (a. vera), camellia sinensis, hibiscus sabdariffa and sophora alopecuroides may prevent gastric ulcer induced by non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (nsaids). objective: to examine the protective potential of these plants against indomethacin-induced gastric ulcer in the rat. methods: saline, a. vera leaf gel powder and 70% alcoholic extracts of the o...

background: post episiotomy pain affects a large number of women after the delivery. the common method for pain relief is using oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. considering the side effects of these medicines, the aim of present study was to compare the effects of indomethacin suppository and mefenamic acid capsule on post episiotomy pain. methods: in a clinical trial study, sixty wo...
