    PRODUCT MONOGRAPH NOVO–KETOROLAC (ketorolac tromethamine) 10 mg Tablets NSAID Analgesic Agent Novopharm Limited Date of Revision: Toronto, Canada August 02, 2007 Control Number 112565 PRODUCT MONOGRAPH NOVO–KETOROLAC (ketorolac tromethamine) 10 mg Tablets THERAPEUTIC CLASSIFICATION NSAID Analgesic Agent ACTION AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY NOVO-KETOROLAC (ketorolac tromethamine) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that has analgesic activity. It is considered to be a peripherally acting analgesic. It is thought to inhibit the cyclo-oxygenase enzyme system, thereby inhibiting the synthesis of prostaglandins. At analgesic doses it has minimal anti-inflammatory and antipyretic activity. The peak analgesic effect occurs at 2 to 3 hours post-dosing with no evidence of a statistically significant difference over the recommended dosage range. The greatest difference between large and small doses of administered ketorolac is in the duration of analgesia. Following oral administration, ketorolac tromethamine is rapidly and completely absorbed, and pharmacokinetics are linear following single and multiple dosing. Steady state plasma levels are achieved after one day of q.i.d. dosing. - 2 - Peak plasma concentrations of 0.7 to 1.1 µg/mL occurred at 44 minutes following a single oral dose of 10 mg. The terminal plasma elimination half-life ranged between 2.4 and 9 hours in healthy adults, while in the elderly subjects (mean age: 72 years) it ranged between 4.3 and 7.6 hours. A high fat meal decreased the rate but not the extent of absorption of oral ketorolac tromethamine, while antacid had no effect. In renally impaired patients there is a reduction in clearance and an increase in the terminal half- life of ketorolac tromethamine (See Table 1).

DATE OF PREPARATION: 1165 Creditstone Road, Unit #1 April 16, 1991 Vaughan, Ontario L4K 4N7 DATE OF REVISION: February 7, 2019 Submission Control No. 223098 Page 1 of 20 PRODUCT MONOGRAPH NAME OF DRUG FLURBIPROFEN Flurbiprofen Tablets BP 50 mg and 100 mg PHARMACOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION Anti-inflammatory, analgesic agent ACTIONS AND CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY FLURBIPROFEN (flurbiprofen), a phenylalkanoic acid derivative, is a non-steroidal anti- inflammatory agent which also possesses analgesic and antipyretic activities. Its mode of action, like that of other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agents, is not known. However, its therapeutic action is not due to pituitary adrenal stimulation. Flurbiprofen is an inhibitor of prostaglandin synthesis. The resulting decrease in prostaglandin synthesis may partially explain the drug's anti-inflammatory effect at the cellular level. Pharmacokinetics: Flurbiprofen is well absorbed after oral administration, reaching peak blood levels in approximately 1.5 hours (range 0.5 to 4 hours). Administration of flurbiprofen with food does not alter total drug availability but delays absorption. Excretion of flurbiprofen is virtually complete 24 hours after the last dose. The elimination half-life is 5.7 hours with 90% of the half-life values from 3-9 hours. There is no evidence of drug accumulation and flurbiprofen does not induce enzymes that alter its metabolism. Flurbiprofen is rapidly metabolized and excreted in the urine as free and unaltered intact drug (20-25%) and hydroxylated metabolites (60-80%). In animal models of inflammation the metabolites showed no activity.

    Annals of the Rheumatic Diseases, 1989; 48, 372-381 Evaluation of the effects of antiarthritic drugs on the secretion of proteoglycans by lapine chondrocytes using a novel assay procedure SIMON COLLIER AND PETER GHOSH From the Raymond Purves Research Laboratories (The University of Sydney) at the Royal North Shore Hospital of Sydney, St Leonards, NSW 2065, Australia SUMMARY A new method is described for separating free 35SO4- from 35SO4 labelled groteoglycans synthesised by rabbit articular chondrocytes cultured in the presence of excess 4 The procedure uses the low solubility product of barium sulphate to remove, by precipitation, free 35SO4- from culture medium. Optimum recovery of 35so4 labelled proteoglycans was achieved after papain digestion to release 35SO4-glycosaminoglycans, and addition of chondroitin sulphate before the precipitation step. Using this assay, we studied the effect of six drugs-indomethacin, diclofenac, sodium pentosan polysulphate, glycosaminoglycan polysulphate ester, tiaprofenic acid, and ketoprofen-on the secretion into the medium of labelled proteoglycans by lapine chondrocytes. The six drugs were tested at 0< 1, 1, 10, 50, and 100 I.g/ml over four consecutive 48 hour culture periods. A consistent concentration-response pattern was found for the four non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) studied. Generally they inhibited proteoglycan secretion at 50 and 100 [ig/ml but had no effect at lower concentrations. Inhibition of secretion was strongest with indomethacin and diclofenac at 50 and 100 ig/ml. In contrast with the NSAIDs studied, the two sulphated polysaccharides (sodium pentosan polysulphate and glycosaminoglycan polysulphate ester) at low concentrations increased proteoglycan secretion by chondrocytes, with maximal stimulation occurring at 1 [ig/ml.

  • Cyclooxygenase
    COX Cyclooxygenase Cyclooxygenase (COX), officially known as prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase (PTGS), is an enzyme that is responsible for formation of important biological mediators called prostanoids, including prostaglandins, prostacyclin and thromboxane. Pharmacological inhibition of COX can provide relief from the symptoms of inflammation and pain. Drugs, like Aspirin, that inhibit cyclooxygenase activity have been available to the public for about 100 years. Two cyclooxygenase isoforms have been identified and are referred to as COX-1 and COX-2. Under many circumstances the COX-1 enzyme is produced constitutively (i.e., gastric mucosa) whereas COX-2 is inducible (i.e., sites of inflammation). Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), such as aspirin and ibuprofen, exert their effects through inhibition of COX. The main COX inhibitors are the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). www.MedChemExpress.com 1 COX Inhibitors, Antagonists, Activators & Modulators (+)-Catechin hydrate (-)-Catechin Cat.
