NOVEL USE OF A PEPTIDE CLASS OF COMPOUND FOR TREATING NON NEUROPATHIC INFLAMMATORY PAIN

摘要

The present invention concerns the use of compounds of the Formula (I): CHEM for treating different types and symptoms of acute and chronic pain, especially non neuropathic inflammatory pain in mammals. The pain to be treated may be e.g. chronic inflammatory pain, rheumatoid arthritis pain and/or secondary inflammatory osteoarthritic pain. The compounds show an antinociceptive profile and differ from classical analgesics like opioids and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) and are useful as specific analgesics.
