gamma-Oxo(1,1'-biphenyl)-4-butanoic acid (fenbufen) was shown to be an orally and parenterally effective nonsteroidal antiinflammatory, analgesic and antipyretic agent in a variety of animal species. Like other clinically active antiinflammatory drugs such as acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), indometacin and phenylbutazone, fenbufen has

In vitro biphenylacetic acid (BPAA), a metabolite of fenbufen, is more potent than fenbufen and in vivo metabolism of fenbufen to BPAA is probably
