Effect of surfactants on percutaneous absorption of naproxen II: in vivo and in vitro correlations in rats. 1978

Z T Chowhan, and R Pritchard, and W H Rooks, and A Tomolonis

The effect of surfactants on percutaneous absorption of naproxen was studied using rat in vivo models. The in vivo normalized relative absorption rates were in good agreement with the in vitro relative flux. An antipyretic model in the rat could not show relatively small increases in percutaneous absorption caused by the surfactants. Based on these results, it is apparent that reliance on the rat, using either in vitro or in vivo models, may lead to erroneous conclusions when considering the effect of surfactants on human percutaneous absorption of drugs such as naproxen.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement.

D000894 Anti-Inflammatory Agents, Non-Steroidal Anti-inflammatory agents that are non-steroidal in nature. In addition to anti-inflammatory actions, they have analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions. They act by blocking the synthesis of prostaglandins by inhibiting cyclooxygenase, which converts arachidonic acid to cyclic endoperoxides, precursors of prostaglandins. Inhibition of prostaglandin synthesis accounts for their analgesic, antipyretic, and platelet-inhibitory actions; other mechanisms may contribute to their anti-inflammatory effects.
