Acexamic acid (N-acetyl-amino-6-hexanoic acid) is a drug used as a cicatrization helper. Some studies show that the acexamic acid prevents the formation the connective inflamed tissue and enables its healing. The association from acexamic acid with zinc, zinc acexamate, has been used in the treatment of gastric and duodenal ulcer and in the prevention of gastric ulcer induced by nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

Outer: 5% ointment is applied to the disinfected wound surface daily. The course of treatment is from 10 to 30 days.
Route of Administration: Topical
The mouse fibroblast cell line (NCTC Clone L 929) was maintained as stock culture in a minimum essential medium (MEM) supplemented with 10% calf serum and 200 i.u./ml G penicillin and 100 pg/d streptomycin. Cultures for growth studies were established by inoculating 7 X l0^4 cells in 2 ml medium in 35-mm plastic tissue culture dishes. They were maintained for 24 h to obtain a good attachment, then incubated in 5% calf serum medium supplemented or not with the drugs tested. Acexamic acid increased the growth rate of L 929 when used at a concentration of 0.001%
