PHARMACOLOGICAL DATA
A. Analgesic Activity
The test was based on that of Koster et al [Fed. Proc., Vol. 1B (1959), p. 412] in which mice received an intraperitoneal injection of acetic acid to provoke repeated stretching and twisting movements which persist for more than 6 hours. An analgesic prevents or reduces this syndrome which is considered to be an exteriorization of a diffuse abdominal pain. A 1% solution of acetic acid in water was used and the dose relieving the syndrome under these conditions was 0.1 mg/g or 100 mg/kg of acetic acid.
The test compound was orally administered to the mice 30 minutes before the acetic acid injection and the mice had been fasting for the previous 24 hours. The stretching were counted for each mouse for a 15 minute observation period after the acetic acid injection and the dose which diminished the number of stretchings by 50% as compared to the controls (DA.sub.50) was 0.55 mg/kg for the compound of Example 1.
B. Anti-inflammatory Activity
The anti-inflammatory activity was determined by the arthritis test provoked by carraghenin in male rats weighing about 130 to 150 g which received 0.05 ml of sterile suspension of 1% carraghenin into the tibio-tarisen articulation of the rear paw. Simultaneously the test product in a suspension in 0.25% carboxymethyl cellulose and 0.02% of Tween was orally administered. The volume of the paw was measured before the test and then 2,4,6,8 and 24 hours later. The intensity of inflammation was maximum at 4 to 6 hours after the injection of carraghenin and the difference in paw volume of controls and treated animals were evidence of anti-inflammatory action. The DA.sub.50 dose which is that which reduced the edema by 50% was 4 mg/kg for the product of Example 1.
Various modifications of the products and processes of the invention may be made without departing from the spirit or scope thereof and it is to be understood that the invention is intended to be limited only as defined in the appended claims.
