In the experiment in a model of acute formalin-induced inflammation of rat paw, the changes of size of the affected limbs (paw edema) and parameters of leukogram were registered. The anti-inflammatory effect of antihypoxants (amtizol, hesperidin, hypoxen, metaprot) was investigated. It has been shown that hypoxen 50 mg/kg have weak anti-inflammatory activity, but potentiate the effect of nonsteroid anti-inflammatory drugs. At simultaneous enteral administration of hypoxen with acetylsalicylic acid or diclofenac, evident anti-inflammatory effect was marked, that was manifested by significant reduction in registered inflammation symptoms.
