In reply to Oh yay, another single-isomer drug launched in UK, posted by ed_uk on August 5, 2005, at 17:31:14
Hi Ed!
>It's a shame that the drug companies and spending so much time developing single-isomer drugs (think Lexapro $$$) rather than actually making the effort to develop innovative products.
Well said and I definately agree!
>Dexibuprofen (Seractil) is now available in the UK. Dexibuprofen is the active isomer of ibuprofen.
This caught my attention as I use ibuprofen quite alot (used to use Nurofen), but of course what with tesco etc offering ibuprofen at prices of 40p per 16 tablets, I buy their make now - theres not much difference anyway is there?
Back to Dexibuprofen lol I was wondering, will this be available over the counter?...sometime in the future perhaps?
Kind regards
Nick
