Abstract
The influence of acute exposures to standard (ST) and nicotine-reduced (NR) cigarette smokes on the plasma concentration of orally administered indomethacin (IM, 5 mg/kg) was investigated in rats. IM plasma concentrations in the ST- and NR-groups were lower than those in the non-smoking control group, while the lowered effect in the NR-group was slightly weaker than in the ST-group. These results suggest that the plasma concentrations of IM administered orally are lowered by the acute exposure of cigarette smoke, and this influence may be attributed largely to constituents other than nicotine in the cigarette smoke as well as slightly attributable to nicotine.
