The non‐steroidal anti‐inflammatory agent, indoprofen, does not protect against hydrochloric acid induced lung injury in the rat

Abstract
The effects of pulmonary instillation of hydrochloric acid on solute flux from the lung (measured as the clearance of 99mTcDTPA) together with an index of oedema formation (the ratio of lung wet weight to lung dry weight) was measured in rats. There was a significant increase in 99mTcDTPA clearance (P after the injury produced no evidence of a beneficial effect on this inflammatory response.
