Drug therapy reviews: Antirheumatic agents
American Journal of Health-System Pharmacy, 1979The pathophysiology, symptoms and drug treatment of rheumatic disease are reviewed. Antirheumatic drugs reviewed are salicylates (including aspirin, sodium salicylate, choline salicylate, choline magnesium salicylate, salsalate), phenylpropionic acid derivatives (fenoprofen, ibuprofen, naproxen), indole derivatives (sulindac, tolmetin and indomethacin),

Antirheumatic agents and leukocyte recruitment
Biochemical Pharmacology, 1999Most anti-inflammatory agents used in the treatment of joint diseases exert inhibitory effects on leukocyte infiltration. Methotrexate, a disease-modifying drug, and corticosteroids also inhibit leukocyte accumulation during inflammation. However, the mechanisms of action of these different compounds on leukocytes vary and in the case of non-steroidal ...

Evaluation of Ibuprofen (Motrin)
JAMA, 1975Ibuprofen is a new, mild analgesic agent that may be useful in the symptomatic treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis. Results of clinical studies have shown that its beneficial effects in these conditions are comparable, but not superior, to those of aspirin. However, at recommended doses it has less anti-inflammatory effect than aspirin.

Effect of a Benzylidene Derivative, a Novel Antirheumatic Agent, on IL-1 Production
Pharmacological Research, 19933,4-Diacetoxy benzylidene diacetate (ACP) is a prodrug of protocatechualdehyde (PAL). PAL significantly inhibited interleukin-1 (IL-1) production and release in human monocytes in a dose dependent fashion under lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation.

Polymeric prodrugs, 5. Dextran‐bound antirheumatic agent naproxen
Die Makromolekulare Chemie, 1986AbstractThe dextran‐bound antirheumatic agent, Naproxen [(+)‐2‐(6‐methoxy‐2‐naphtyl)propionic acid] (3) was synthesized by linking the 2‐aminoethyl ester of Naproxen to the oxydized dextran via an alkylamine bond. The hydrolytic stabilities of modified dextrans were examined viscometrically. The drug release from polymeric prodrug samples containing 68–

The Antirheumatic Agents Sulphasalazine and Methotrexate Share an Anti-Inflammatory Mechanism
Rheumatology, 1995Increasingly, methotrexate (MTX) and sulphasalazine (SASP) are used initially for second-line therapy of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Although SASP and MTX are commonly used, the mechanism(s) by which these drugs control the inflammation that characterizes RA have remained obscure.
