“…N-arlyhydrazone derivatives of mefenamic acid (10)(11)(12)(13)(14)(15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21) were evaluated for analgesic activity (fig 4). Except compounds 13, 16, 17 and 21, all of them induced significant analgesic activity and among them 7 compounds significantly showed higher inhibitory effect on the writhing response in comparison to mefenamic acid as follow: (10, 71.1%), (11, 58.5%), (14, 46.7%), (15, 42.4%), (18, 67.9%), (19, 93.7%), (20, 50.9%), mefenamic acid (25.6%).…”
