pubmed:abstractText
Ten patients with rheumatoid arthritis were given identical amounts of conventional aspirin (Magnecyl) tablets and micro-encapsulated aspirin (Reumyl) capsules. Steady-state salicylate levels were determined after 4 days' treatment at 8 a.m., 12 noon, 4 p.m., 10 p.m. and again at 8 a.m. No difference was noted between the levels at 12 noon or 4 p.m. The 10 p.m. levels were slightly though not significantly higher and the last set of 8 a.m. levels were significantly higher during the capsule administration. A criterion for inclusion was good tolerance of Magnecyl. The clinical effectiveness was not evaluated, but the observed good absorption features of Reumyl indicate that this preparation may prove to be of value in long-term treatment.
