IPA COPYRIGHT: ASHP The behavior in solution of diclofenac N-(2-hydroxyethyl) pyrrolidine (diclofenac hydroxyethylpyrrolidine), the salt formed by diclofenac and N-(2-hydroxyethyl) pyrrolidine, was examined. This salt was found to be more soluble and dissolved more rapidly than diclofenac sodium. Above 35 mM of the salt, the solutions showed unexpected solubilization ability toward sparingly soluble materials. Studies have shown this salt to give faster plasma levels than the sodium salt when administered orally.
