Method for preparing DMSO master liquid: mg drug pre-dissolved in μL DMSO ( Master liquid concentration mg/mL, Please contact us first if the concentration exceeds the DMSO solubility of the batch of drug. )

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next addμL PEG300, mix and clarify, next addμL Tween 80, mix and clarify, next add μL ddH2O, mix and clarify.

Method for preparing in vivo formulation: Take μL DMSO master liquid, next add μL Corn oil, mix and clarify.

Note: 1. Please make sure the liquid is clear before adding the next solvent.
2. Be sure to add the solvent(s) in order. You must ensure that the solution obtained, in the previous addition, is a clear solution before proceeding to add the next solvent. Physical methods such
as vortex, ultrasound or hot water bath can be used to aid dissolving.

COX1
COX-2
In vivo

Bromfenac (bromfenac sodium) by the oral route at pretreatment times of 10 min, 20 min and 300 min is respectively 3.7, 6.5 and 2.9 times more potent than zomepirac and 3.4, 6.6, and 44.2 times more potent than suprofen in the acetylcholine abdominal constriction assay in mice. Bromfenac when given orally is 5.8 times more potent than zomepirac in blocking the nociceptive response to bradykinin in dogs. Bromfenac is 6.1 to 32.8 times more potent than indometacin in inhibiting the formation of prostaglandin E2 and F2 alpha from microsomes of bovine seminal vesicles, rabbit uteri, and rabbit renal medullae. Bromfenac, given orally, is more potent than indometacin in suppressing acute (7.5-20 times) and chronic (3.8 times) inflammation in mice. Bromfenac (1 mg/kg, i.v.) is metabolited into an unusual conjugate, bromfenac N-glucoside, in rats bile. Bromfenac shows a rapid onset of activity (20 min) that persisted for at least 4 hours in a mouse model of pain (acetylcholine abdominal constriction). Bromfenac (0.316 mg/kg) produces significant anti-inflammatory activity up to 24 hours after dosing in a rat model of inflammation (carrageenan foot edema). Bromfenac is readily absorbed after oral administration, peak plasma levels being achieved at the earliest time tested: 20 min in the mouse and 30 min in the rat.
