Abstract

The gastroprotective effect of low molecular weight chitosan was studied on a model of indomethacin gastropathy in Wistar rats. An assessment of the areas of ribbon and point erosions in the gastric mucosa in rats after intragastric administration of indomethacin suspension at a dose of 60 mg per 1 kg of body weight showed that intragastric administration of 0.2% aqueous solution of low molecular weight chitosan (50 kDa) 1 hour after administration of indomethacin significantly reduces the areas of erosion in the gastric mucosa. This effect is especially pronounced in the analysis of band erosions, as the most severe form of nonsteroidal gastropathy. The data obtained may be of significant interest for the creation of combined dosage forms of NSAIDs with minimal damaging effect on the gastric mucosa.
