Acedoben (4-acetamidobenzoic acid) is a benzoic acid derivative and a metabolite of benzocaine. It is a component of immunomodulatory drug inosine pranobex, which is used to treat mucocutaneous infections due to herpes simplex virus (type 1 and/or type II), genital warts as adjunctive therapy to podophyllin or carbon dioxide laser, and subacute sclerosing panencephalitis.

Sample Use Guides

Mucocutaneous herpes simplex: 1 g q.d.s. (4g daily), for 7 -14 days. Genital warts: 1g t.d.s. (3g daily), for 14-28 days as adjunctive therapy to podophyllin or carbon dioxide laser. Subacute sclerosing panencephalitis (SSPE): 50-100mg/kg daily, in divided does every 4 hours.
Route of Administration: Oral
In Vitro Use Guide
Inosine pranobex has been shown to stimulate various indices of metabolic activity of macrophages and monocytes. In vitro exposure to inosine pranobex or to 24-hour supernatants obtained from mononuclear cells pretreated with the drug restored chemotaxis to normal or near normal levels. Incubation with inosine pranobex in vitro stimulated the production of interleukin-l (lymphocyte activating factor) in human monocytes.
