Triflusal is a platelet antiaggregant drug with photoallergic side effects. However, it is considered a prodrug since it is metabolized to 2-hydroxy-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid (HTB)--the pharmacologically active form. HTB was found to be photolabile under various conditions. Its major photodegradation pathway

2-hydroxy-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid (HTB) is the main active metabolite of the platelet antiaggregant drug triflusal. Its binding to plasma proteins of rats and healthy volunteers in vitro and in vivo has been studied. Rats were given a single oral dose of

We examined the effects of intravenous administration of the 2 nuclear factor-kappaB inhibitors aspirin and 2-hydroxy-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid (HTB) on bladder filling and voiding in anesthetized and conscious rats. Disappearance of isovolumic bladder contractions after intravenous administration of different doses of

The therapeutic potential of drugs that block the induction of cyclooxygenase-2 has been emphasized. When two 4-trifluoromethyl salicylate derivatives [2-acetoxy-4-trifluoromethyl-benzoic acid (triflusal) and its deacetylated metabolite 2-hydroxy-4-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid (HTB)] were compared with aspirin and sodium salicylate as cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitors

A rapid, selective and sensitive high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of triflusal and its major active metabolite, 2-hydroxy-4-trifluoromethyl benzoic acid (HTB), in rat and human plasma. HPLC analysis was carried out using
