Comparative Bioavailability of a Novel Fixed-dose Combination Etoricoxib and Tramadol.

Multimodal analgesia is defined as using several drugs or techniques simultaneously to target different pain pathways or receptors to avoid pain propagation. This study evaluated the pharmacokinetic profile and comparative bioavailability of etoricoxib 90 mg and tramadol 50 mg dosing alone (reference drugs) or in a novel fixed-dose combination (test drug) under fasting conditions in Mexican healthy volunteers. This was a randomized, open-label, 3-way, crossover, single-dose, prospective, and longitudinal study with a 14-day washout period.

Pharmacokinetic Profile and Comparative Bioavailability of an Oral Fixed-Dose Combination of Metformin and Acetylsalicylic Acid (Aspirin).

Patients with diabetes face a 2-4-fold greater cardiovascular risk compared to those without diabetes. Both metformin and acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) treatment have demonstrated a significant reduction in this risk. This single-center, open-label, sequence randomized, 2 × 2 crossover, single-dose clinical trial evaluated the pharmacokinetics profile and comparative bioavailability of a novel oral fixed-dose combination (FDC) of metformin/acetylsalicylic acid (500/100 mg tablet) versus the reference mono-drugs administered concomitantly, metformin 500 mg tablet and acetylsalicylic acid 100 mg tablet, in 22 healthy Mexican adult volunteers under fasting conditions.

Production of reactive oxygen species by toxin T-514 of genus Karwinskia in vitro.

In the present study we have analyzed the production of reactive oxygen species by toxin T-514 of the genus Karwinskia in vitro (primary liver cell cultures and microsomes), as well as their possible role in its cytotoxicity. The role of catalase and superoxide dismutase (SOD) as defense mechanisms against oxidative stress was also studied. Freshly isolated hepatocytes or microsomes were exposed to T-514 in the presence or absence of catalase and SOD.
