Abstract:
Objective To determine the distribution of flurbiprofen axetil in the muscle tissue in the surgical field after intravenous administration in rats. Methods Forty pathogen-free male SD rats weighing 240-260 g were randomly divided into 5 groups (n=8 each) : Ⅰ control group (group C) and Ⅱ-Ⅴ flurbiprofen groups received iv flurbiprofen axetil 2, 4, 8, 16 mg/kg respectively (group F_1, F_2, F_3, F_4). An 1 cm long incision was made in the right plantar surface from the heel to the toes according to the method described by Brennen under isoflurane anesthesia. The muscle was cut through in the incision but not severed. Flurbiprofen axetil was injected iv via the vein in the tail at 20 min after plantar incision was made in group Ⅱ-Ⅴ . At 2 h after iv flurbiprofen axetil administration, the animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 3% pentobarbital 100 mg/kg. The muscles of both hindpaws were dissected, homogenized and centrifuged. The supernatant was separated for determination of flurbiprofen content (by RP-HPLC) and PGE_2 content ( by ELISA). Results The flurbiprofen content in the muscle of hindpaw on the operated side was significantly increased dose-dependently compared with that on the non-operated side and was significantly higher than that on the non-operated side. The flurbiprofen content in the muscle of hindpaw on the non-operated side was significantly higher in group F_4 than in the other 4 groups. There was no significant difference in the flurbiprofen content in the paw muscle on the non-operated side among group C, F_1 F_2 and F_3. The PGF_2 content was significantly higher in the hindpaw muscle on the operated side than that on the non-operated side, and was significantly decreased by flurbiprofen dose-dependently. Conclusion The content of flurbiprofen is significantly higher in the muscle tissue in the surgical field after iv administration than that on the non-operated side, indicating that flurbiprofen axtei has target-analgesic effect.
