  • What Are the Acute Treatments for Migraine and How Are They Used?
    2. Acute Treatment CQ II-2-1 What are the acute treatments for migraine and how are they used? Recommendation The mainstay of acute treatment for migraine is pharmacotherapy. The drugs used include (1) acetaminophen, (2) non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), (3) ergotamines, (4) triptans and (5) antiemetics. Stratified treatment according to the severity of migraine is recommended: use NSAIDs such as aspirin and naproxen for mild to moderate headache, and use triptans for moderate to severe headache, or even mild to moderate headache when NSAIDs were ineffective in the past. It is necessary to give guidance and cautions to patients having acute attacks, and explain the methods of using medications (timing, dose, frequency of use) and medication use during pregnancy and breast-feeding. Grade A Background and Objective The objective of acute treatment is to resolve the migraine attack completely and rapidly and restore the patient’s normal functions. An ideal treatment should have the following characteristics: (1) resolves pain and associated symptoms rapidly; (2) is consistently effective; (3) no recurrence; (4) no need for additional use of medication; (5) no adverse effects; (6) can be administered by the patients themselves; and (7) low cost. Literature was searched to identify acute treatments that satisfy the above conditions. Comments and Evidence The acute treatment drugs for migraine generally include (1) acetaminophens, (2) non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), (3) ergotamines, (4) triptans, and (5) antiemetics. For severe migraines including status migrainosus and migraine attacks refractory to treatment, (6) anesthetics, and (7) corticosteroids (dexamethasone) are used (Tables 1 and 2).1)-9) There are two approaches to the selection and sequencing of these medications: “step care” and “stratified care”.

    Journal of Experimental Pharmacology Dovepress open access to scientific and medical research Open Access Full Text Article ORIGINAL RESEARCH A comparative experimental study of analgesic activity of a novel non-steroidal anti-inflammatory molecule – zaltoprofen, and a standard drug – piroxicam, using murine models This article was published in the following Dove Press journal: Journal of Experimental Pharmacology C Santenna Purpose: Pain is an unpleasant sensation, but a protective mechanism of our body. It is the Sunil Kumar most common medical complaint requiring a visit to a physician. The new non-steroidal anti- S Balakrishnan inflammatory drug (NSAID) – zaltoprofen, is a preferential COX-2 inhibitor. It also inhibits Ratinder Jhaj bradykinin-induced nociceptive responses by blocking the B2 receptor-mediated pathway in Shah Newaz Ahmed the primary sensory neurons. The present study was conducted to evaluate and compare the anti-nociceptive activity of zaltoprofen with a conventional NSAID – piroxicam, in a mouse Department of Pharmacology, All India model of acute pain using hot plate and tail flick tests. Institute of Medical Sciences Bhopal, – Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh, India Materials and methods: Twenty-four adult Swiss albino mice (20 25 g) of either sex were used in this study. Oral zaltoprofen and piroxicam were used as test and standard drugs respectively. Anti-nociceptive activity was evaluated and compared using hot plate and tail flick tests. Results: In comparison to the control group (vehicle), zaltoprofen showed a significant increase in reaction time at various time periods in the hot plate and tail flick tests. In the hot plate method, zaltoprofen groups (15 and 20 mg/kg) showed a significant elevation in pain threshold in comparison to control group (vehicle) (p<0.001).

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Since binding of a drug molecule to human serum albumin (HSA) significantly affects the pharmacokinetics of the drug, it is highly desirable to predict the binding affinity of the drug. Profen drugs are a widely used class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and it has been reported that several members of the profen class specifically bind to one of the main binding sites named site II. The actual binding mode of only ibuprofen has been directly confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Therefore, it is of interest whether other profen drugs are site II binders. Docking simulations using multiple template structures of HSA from three crystal structures of complexes between drugs and HSA have demonstrated that most of the currently available profen drugs should be site II binders. 1. Introduction center. Based on the reliable crystal structures, structure- based approaches are possible.

India ARTICLEINFO ABSTRACT Article History: A simple, sensitive, linear, precise and accurate RP-HPLC method for simultaneous estimation of Received 19th February, 2019 Zaltoprofen and Paracetamol in bulk and tablet formulation as developed and validated. 18 Received in revised form Chromatographic conditions used are stationary phase Grace C column (250mm × 4.6mm, 5µ 25th March, 2019 particle size. The mobile phase Methanol: Phosphate buffer (PH 3.0) in the ratio 75:25 v/v and flow Accepted 15th April, 2019 rate was maintained 0.8ml/min, detection wavelength was 241nm. The retention times were 3.101min th Published online 30 May, 2019 and 5.838min for Zaltoprofen and Paracetamol respectively. Calibration plot were linear R2 =0.9994 2 over the concentration range 10-18µg/ml for Zaltoprofen, R = 0.9994 for the Paracetamol 40- Key Words: 72µg/ml. No interference from any component of pharmaceutical dosage form was observed. The Zaltoprofen, Paracetamol, proposed method has been validated as per ICH guidelines, validation studies revealed that method id RP-HPLC Method, specific, rapid, reliable and reproducible.
