PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
description
Acemetacin is a carboxylic ester that is the carboxymethyl ester of indometacin. A non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, it is used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, and low back pain, as well as for postoperative pain and inflammation. Its activity is due to both acemetacin and its major metabolite, indometacin. It has a role as a prodrug, an EC 1.14.99.1 (prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase) inhibitor, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug and a non-narcotic analgesic. It is a N-acylindole, a monocarboxylic acid, a carboxylic ester, an indol-3-yl carboxylic acid and a member of monochlorobenzenes. It is functionally related to an indometacin.
