Metabolite Identification
Common NameBromfenac
DescriptionBromfenac, also known as bromfenac sodium or xibrom, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzophenones. These are organic compounds containing a ketone attached to two phenyl groups. Bromfenac is a drug which is used for the treatment of postoperative inflammation in patients who have undergone cataract extraction. Amfenac in which the the hydrogen at the 4 position of the benzoyl group is substituted by bromine. Bromfenac is a moderately basic compound (based on its pKa). In humans, bromfenac is involved in bromfenac action pathway. Bromfenac is a potentially toxic compound. It is used for the management of ocular pain and treatment of postoperative inflammation in patients who have undergone cataract extraction. It was withdrawn from the US market in 1998, following concerns over off-label abuse and hepatic failure.
