[Experimental comparative study of the anti-inflammatory effectiveness of pranoprofen].

Purpose: To study the antiinflammatory capacity of topical pranoprofen in comparison with other ophthalmological nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs (diclofenac and flurbiprofen) in albino rabbits.

Methods: We have produced an endotoxin-induced uveitis by intravitreal injection of 10 ng of Salmonella typhimurium endotoxin. We have used 48 albino rabbits (4 groups of 12 animals each), first group were control group (intravitreal saline solution), which were treated unilaterally every two hours with 2 drops of: Group II, pranoprofen (1 mg/ml).
