The pharmacokinetic properties of ibuprofen p.o. given either as a lysine salt or as acid to eight young, healthy male volunteers was investigated. Ibuprofen lysinate, administered after overnight fasting, produced peak plasma concentrations significantly earlier and higher than ibuprofen acid. A similar difference was observed when the drugs were given following a standardized breakfast. Under these conditions the lat-time was significantly shorter for the lysine salt than for the acid. The pharmacokinetic differences are likely to result from the faster dissolution rate of ibuprofen lysinate. They indicate that the administration of ibuprofen as lysine salt before meals may be advantageous if rapid and reliable onset of pain relief is required.

Background: Some recent trials have reported high efficacy for nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in relieving medical abortion-related pain. The aim of this study was to determine the beneficial effect of oral NSAIDs (ibuprofen lysine) in reduction of pain and hemorrhage in first-trimester medical abortion.

Methods: This randomized triple-blinded clinical trial was performed on 98 pregnant women who were candidate for medical abortion within the first-trimester period (gestational age<12 weeks).

Introduction: Pain management during root canal therapy and after that is of great importance in endodontics. This study aimed to compare the effect of two non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs); ibuprofen and ibuprofen lysine with two methods of prescription on pain after single-visit root canal treatment of first and second mandibular molar teeth with irreversible pulpitis.

Materials And Methods: This randomized study recruited subjects experiencing moderate to severe pain from a tooth diagnosed with symptomatic irreversible pulpitis (n=120).

In Vitro Microbiological and Drug Release of Silver/Ibuprofen Loaded Wound Dressing Designed for the Treatment of Chronically Infected Painful Wounds.

Antibiotics (Basel)

July 2021

U1008 Advanced Drug Delivery Systems, Institut National de la Santé et de la Recherche Médicale (INSERM), Centre Hospitalier Régional Universitaire de Lille (CHU Lille), University of Lille, 59000 Lille, France.

This study consisted of developing a dressing loaded with silver (Ag) and ibuprofen (IBU) that provides a dual therapy, antibacterial and antalgic, intended for infected painful wounds. Therefore, non-woven polyethyleneterephtalate (PET) textiles nonwovens were pre-treated by cyclodextrin crosslinked with citric acid by a pad/dry/cure process. Then, textiles were impregnated in silver solution followed by a thermal treatment and were then coated by Layer-by-Layer (L--L) deposition of a polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) system consisting of anionic water-soluble poly(betacyclodextrin citrate) (PCD) and cationic chitosan.

The taste of drug substances plays a key role in the development of paediatric formulations with suitable organoleptic properties. The aim of the study was to evaluate the taste masking effectiveness of Smartseal 30D and ReadyMix on a range of bitter drug substances such as diphenhydramine HCl (DPD), ibuprofen lysine (IBU-LS), and phenylephrine HCl (PPH) for the development of paediatric dosage forms. The drugs were microencapsulated in the polymer carriers at 10-20% loadings using spray-drying processing.

Introduction: Ibuprofen acid is poorly soluble in the stomach, thus reaching maximum plasma levels at approximately 90 min post-dose. Ibuprofen lysinate has been developed to accelerate absorption of ibuprofen to shorten the time to analgesic efficacy. This study compared analgesic efficacy and onset of effect of a single dose of ibuprofen lysinate or ibuprofen acid in patients undergoing third molar extraction.
