Alclofenac sodium
Alclofenac (Allopydin) sodium is an orally active prostaglandin synthase inhibitor with anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic activities. Alclofenac sodium irreversibly inhibits platelet aggregation. Alclofenac can be used in research related to rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, low back pain and sciatica.

Biological Activity
Alclofenac sodium inhibits prostaglandin biosynthesis in vitro in ram seminal vesicle microsomes[1].
Alclofenac sodium inhibits oxidative phosphorylation in rat liver mitochondria in vitro[1].
Alclofenac sodium exerts cytostatic and cytotoxic effects on mammalian cells in vitro[1].
Alclofenac sodium inhibits collagen- or epinephrine-induced human platelet aggregation in vitro[1].
MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
Alclofenac (25-100 mg/kg; p.o./s.c.) sodium prevents and treats adjuvant-induced arthritis in rats[1].
Alclofenac exhibits analgesic activity in rats[1].
Alclofenac (100-200 mg/kg; p.o.) sodium exerts a dose-dependent antipyretic effect in febrile rabbits[1].
Alclofenac (100-200 mg/kg; p.o./i.p.) sodium exerts central nervous system depressant activity in rats, which is manifested by prolonged pentobarbital-induced sleep time[1].
Alclofenac (10-960 mg/kg; p.o.; once daily; for 5 consecutive days) sodium inhibits acute inflammation in rats in a dose-dependent manner[2].

Animal Model:Carrageenin-induced paw oedema in rats[1]
-
Dosage:20 mg/kg (p.o.); 40 mg/kg (p.o.); 80 mg/kg (p.o.); 25 mg/kg (s.c.); 100 mg/kg (s.c.)
-
Administration:p.o.; s.c.
-
Result:Slightly, but not significantly, suppressed carrageenin-induced paw oedema more effectively than equal doses of Phenylbutazone (HY-B0230) at oral doses of 20, 40, and 80 mg/kg.
Showed activity not significantly different from equal doses of Phenylbutazone at subcutaneous doses of 25 and 100 mg/kg.
Demonstrated effect independent of intact adrenals.
