The anti-inflammatory actions of tilorone hydrochloride. 1975

H Megel, and A Raychaudhuri, and I Shemano, and T H Beaver, and L L Thomas

Tilorone suppressed inflammation induced by immune (direct passive Arthus reaction) as well as by non-immune agents (carrageenam-induced paw edema and abscess formation), if the compound is given 24 hr prior to the proinflammatory agonists. The non-immune anti-inflammatory effect is independent of the adrenals. A surprising findings was that total serum hemolytic complement is markedly elevated 24 hr after a single dose of tilorone.
