Inhibitory and disruptive effects of some antirheumatics on antigen-antibody complexes.

Purified antibodies to human serum albumin or to human gamma-globulin were used to study the direct influence of some antirheumatic drugs on the formation and disruption of immunoprecipitates. 125I-labelled human serum albumin and 125I-labelled human IgG served as indicators. The effects of the following drugs were described: diclofenac, monophenylbutazone, diphenylbutazone, ibuprofen, and metamizol.
