Effect of fenoprofen calcium on acute gouty arthritis
Arthritis and Rheumatism
|September 1, 1976
Abstract:
Twenty-seven patients with thirty-six joints affected with acute gouty arthritis were treated with fenoprofen calcium for a duration not exceeding 8 days and with a variable dose not exceeding 3.2g daily. The results indicated that fenoprofen calcium was an effective drug in these patients. Side effects were modest.

01:18Antihypertensive Drugs: Action of Calcium Channel Blockers
Calcium ions are essential to contract smooth muscle cells in blood vessels. They enter these cells through voltage-dependent calcium channels, specifically L-type calcium channels in the cell membrane. These L-type calcium channels are integral to the excitation-contraction coupling process in smooth muscle. When a stimulus is received by smooth muscle cells, their membrane depolarizes. This alteration in membrane potential instigates the opening of L-type calcium channels. As a result,...
01:13Acid Suppressive Drugs for Peptic Ulcer Disease: Proton Pump Inhibitors
Peptic ulcers, often induced by H. pylori infections or NSAID usage, arise from disruptions in the delicate balance of gastric acid production. Peptic ulcers stem from heightened gastric acid levels due to H. pylori infections or NSAID use. The protective mucus layer diminishes in the presence of these factors, allowing gastric acid to erode the stomach lining and form ulcers.
