Abstract:
The paper reported the topical skin antiinflammatory activity of bufexamac on inflammation model induced by formaldehyde in mice. Comparing with the blank cream, the effect of 0.5% bufexamac cre-am on inflammation had no statistically difference, but all those of 1% bufexamac cream at 1 and 2 h after treatment, of 2 % and 5 % bufexamac cream at 1, 2 and 4h after treatment, showed significantly difference. The antiinflammatory activity was enhanced with the increase of bufexamac concentration in cream. The antiinflammatory activity of 2 % bufexamac cream was close to the effects of 1 % indomethacin cream and 0.05 % clobetasol Cream.Furthermore, our study showed that steroid antiinflammatory agents and nonsteroid antiinflammatory agents were all active against erythema and edema produced by formaldehyde in mice. Formaldehyde and mice are cheap and easy to obtain in our country. It is of some value to use the animal model for screening the topical skin antiinflammatory agents.
