Claims
- 1. A method of treating a condition exhibiting at least one of the symptoms of pain, fever, and inflammation, comprising administering to a patient in need of such treatment a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the formula: ##STR15## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are independently selected from hydrogen; C.sub.1-8 alkyl; C.sub.2-8 alkenyl; hydroxy C.sub.1-8 alkyl; and cyclo C.sub.4- alkyl; or R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 taken together with the nitrogen atom from a five- or six-membered saturated heterocyclic ring substituted at the 2-, 3-, and 4-position with R.sub.3, R.sub.4, and R.sub.5, respectively; and
- R.sub.3, R.sub.4, and R.sub.5 are selected from hydrogen; C.sub.1-3 alkyl; C.sub.2-3 alkenyl; hydroxy; hydroxy C.sub.1-3 alkyl; phenyl; carboxyl; carboxamido; C.sub.1-4 alkyl N-mono- and N,N-disubstituted carbonylamino; C.sub.1-4 alkoxycarbonyl; 1-pyrrolidinyl; and 1-piperidinyl; A is ##STR16## and n is 0 to 3; and acid addition and quaternary salts thereof.
- 2. The method of claim 1 wherein the compound is 3-(1-piperidinylmethyl)-3-buten-2-one.
- 3. The method of claim 1 wherein the compound is 3,3'-[1,3-propanediylbis (4,1-piperidinediyl)bis(methylene)]bis [3-buten-2-one].
- 4. A pharmaceutical composition for treating a condition exhibiting at least one of the symptoms of pain, fever, and inflammation, in unit dosage form suitable for oral administration selected from the group consisting of tablets, oily suspensions, soft and hard gelatin capsules, syrups, and elixirs, comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable, non-toxic carrier, containing one or more agents selected from the group consisting of sweeting agents, flavoring agents, coloring agents, and preserving agents, and a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of the formula: ##STR17## wherein R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are independently selected from hydrogen; C.sub.1-8 alkyl; C.sub.2-8 alkenyl; hydroxy C.sub.1-8 alkyl; and cyclo C.sub.4-8 alkyl; or R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 taken together with the nitrogen atom form a five- or six-membered saturated heterocyclic ring substituted at the 2-, 3-, and 4-position with R.sub.3, R.sub.4 and R.sub.5, respectively; and
- R.sub.3, R.sub.4, and R.sub.5 are selected from hydrogen; C.sub.1-3 alkyl; C.sub.2-3 alkenyl; hydroxy; hydroxy C.sub.1-3 alkyl; phenyl; carboxyl; carboxamido; C.sub.1-4 alkyl N-mono- and N,N-disubstituted carbonylamino; C.sub.1-4 alkoxycarbonyl; 1-pyrrolidinyl; and 1-piperidinyl;
- A is ##STR18## and n is 0 to 3; and acid addition and quaternary salts thereof.
- 5. The composition of claim 4 wherein the composition is 3-(1-piperidinylmethyl)-3-buten-2-one.
- 6. The composition of claim 4 wherein the compound is 3,3'-[1,3-propanediylbis (4,1-piperidinediyl)-bis(methylene)]bis[3-buten-2one].
