Abstract

FOR some years we have been investigating the biological properties of substituted phenylalkanoic and phenoxy-alkanoic acids and related compounds. We wish to describe briefly the properties of one of these, ‘Ibufenac’, which Chalmers and Duthie have recently shown to be effective in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis1.
