Effects of benoxaprofen and indomethacin on platelet function and biochemistry. 1980

N U Bang, and A M Dwyer, and C A Marks, and L E Mattler, and R O Heidenreich, and S S Campbell, and A S Ridolfo

Benoxaprofen did not impair platelet function or platelet prostaglandin synthesis in vivo or in vitro in contrast to indomethacin, a known prostaglandin synthesis inhibitor. Platelet cyclic AMP levels were not changed by either drug in vivo or in vitro. The results of routine tests for hemostatic function (template bleeding time and blood clotting assays) were not changed by either drug. A trend towards inhibition of cAMP-dependent protein kinase by benoxaprofen was observed. The significance of this observation, if valid, remains obscure. These studies suggest that benoxaprofen, which does not appreciably suppress hemostatic function, may be used safely in patients with acquired or congenital coagulation defects (e.g. patients receiving oral anticoagulant, hemophiliacs with arthropathy).

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007213 Indomethacin A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory agent (NSAID) that inhibits CYCLOOXYGENASE, which is necessary for the formation of PROSTAGLANDINS and other AUTACOIDS. It also inhibits the motility of POLYMORPHONUCLEAR LEUKOCYTES. Amuno,Indocid,Indocin,Indomet 140,Indometacin,Indomethacin Hydrochloride,Metindol,Osmosin
D008297 Male Males
D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D010974 Platelet Aggregation The attachment of PLATELETS to one another. This clumping together can be induced by a number of agents (e.g., THROMBIN; COLLAGEN) and is part of the mechanism leading to the formation of a THROMBUS. Aggregation, Platelet

D006487 Hemostasis The process which spontaneously arrests the flow of BLOOD from vessels carrying blood under pressure. It is accomplished by contraction of the vessels, adhesion and aggregation of formed blood elements (eg. ERYTHROCYTE AGGREGATION), and the process of BLOOD COAGULATION. Hemostases
