Abstract

ABSTRACT:A study of comparative ulcerogenicity of naproxen, fenoprofen and rectified spirit was conducted underdissecting as well as laboratory microscope. Different parameters of mucus barrier disruption werestudied in detail and a statistical comparison was made between the three drugs used. It was found thatunder dissecting microscope the difference was non-significant but under light microscope naproxen wasmaximally ulcerogenic followed by rectified spirit and fenoprofen was least ulcerogenic.
