Taurine-derived anti-inflammatory drugs with gastric triaxial cell protective activity:
"Effective anti-inflammatory activity plus significant reduction in side effects."
Description:
This technique includes taurine-derived compounds with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory activity, as well as the process of obtaining them and pharmaceutical preparations containing them. Compounds have the potential to treat both acute and chronic inflammatory processes with a sharp reduction in side effects such as absence of gastric lesions.
Problem:
Current medications for inflammatory processes rely on drugs that have numerous side effects and adverse reactions, such as gastric ulcers, high blood pressure, liver and kidney damage, changes in blood and bone marrow, and may even increase the incidence of heart attacks and strokes in long-term users.
Proposed solution: Taurine-derived compounds have effective anti-inflammatory activity, plus reduced side effects and adverse reactions.
Market potential:
