The ibuprofen preparation Eudorlin extra demonstrates the same bioavailability and bioequivalence to Nurofen forte and Migranin at a dose of 400mg, but reaches a higher peak plasma concentration and peaks earlier.
BMC Pharmacology 2008, 8 :15
In vivo assessment of methoxylated versus hydroxylated stilbenes in C. elegans reveals that methoxylation may increase bioactivity of these natural compounds, providing a basis for further investigation of their biological targets.
