Nabumetone Pharmacology

Nabumetone is a naphthylalkanone. It is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that exhibits anti-inflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic properties in pharmacologic studies. As with other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents, its mode of action is not known. However, the ability to inhibit prostaglandin synthesis may be involved in the anti-inflammatory effect.

Nabumetone Absorption

Well absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract. Coadministration of food increases the rate of absorption and subsequent appearance of 6MNA (the active metabolite) in the plasma but does not affect the extent of conversion of nabumetone into 6MNA.

Nabumetone side effects and Toxicity

The one overdose occurred in a 17-year-old female patient who had a history of abdominal pain and was hospitalized for increased abdominal pain following ingestion of 30 nabumetone tablets (15 grams total). Stools were negative for occult blood and there was no fall in serum hemoglobin concentration. The patient had no other symptoms.
