Nabumetone dispersible tablets

Function and Efficacy

This product is a non-acidic non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, which is rapidly metabolized to 6-methoxy-2-naphthylacetic acid (6-MNA) in the liver and has antipyretic, analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. 1 The anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic effects are related to the fact that the active metabolites of cabutimetone inhibit the synthesis of prostaglandins in inflammatory tissues. 2 Little effect on gastric mucosa: This product is a non-acidic, non-ionic prodrug, which has no obvious local direct effect on the gastric mucosa during the absorption process; at the same time, this product has little inhibitory effect on the physiological cyclooxygenase of the gastric mucosa. Therefore, the incidence of gastrointestinal mucosal erosion and bleeding caused by this product is low. 3 No effect on bleeding and coagulation: This product has no effect on the platelet aggregation induced in vitro in blood samples of healthy volunteers. There were no significant changes in bleeding time and coagulation tests.

Precautions

1. It is contraindicated in patients with active peptic ulcer, severe liver damage (e.g., cirrhosis), and allergies to nabumetone and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. 2. Use during pregnancy and lactation: Animal studies have shown no potential for teratogenicity. Like other compounds, maternal toxicity can be seen in animals at sufficiently high doses, and embryonic signs have been recorded (the dose in rabbit studies was 300 mg/kg). High-dose studies in rats (320 mg/kg) can delay delivery, which is believed to be due to the inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis. 3. Nabumetone's active metabolites can be found in mammalian milk, and its safety for use in pregnant women has not been determined. Naphthalene
