Description

Nicotredole (Tryptamide), similarly to ibuprofen and piroxicam, shows anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. Tryptamide reversed pyrogen-induced hyperthermia in rats, elicited analgesic effects in rats, but not in mice, prolonged the time of hexobarbital sleep in rats and inhibited locomotor activity in rats and mice. Tryptamide has not elicited side effects on the circulatory system of rats and cats.
