MW:: 257.28

Use：: Tolmetin sodium (Tolectin), is an arylacetic acid derivativewith a pyrrole as the aryl group. This drug is well absorbed and has a relatively short plasma half-life (1 hour). It is recommendedfor use in the management of acute and chronicRA. Its efficacy is similar to aspirin and indomethacin, butwith less frequency of the adverse effects and tinnitus associatedwith aspirin. It does not potentiate coumarin-likedrugs nor alter the blood levels of sulfonylureas or insulin.However, tolmetin, and especially its closely related drug,zomepirac (i.e., with a p-chlorobenzoyl group and an additionalmethyl group on the pyrrole ring), can produce a rarebut fatal anaphylactic reaction because of irreversible bindingof their unstable acyl glucuronides. Zomepirac waswithdrawn from market because it is eliminated only via theester-type, acyl glucuronide. It is possible that tolmetin isless toxic in this regard because it undergoes additional hepaticbenzylic hydroxylation via its p-methyl group and isexcreted as its stable ether glucuronide.
