A method of treatment of a condition of the gastro-intestinal tract selected from the group consisting of Crohn's disease, atrophic gastritis, ulcerative colites, proctitis, coeliac disease, regional ileitis, peptic ulceration, irritable bowel syndrome and gastro-intestinal bleeding induced by the administration of an anti-inflammatory, which method comprises per os administration of a daily dosage of from 20 to 4,000 mg. of a member selected from the group consisting of a compound of the formula ##STR3## a therapeutically acceptable salt, an alkyl C 1 to 10 ester, a mono-alkyl C 1 to 10 amide, a di-alkyl C 1 to 10 amide and an unsubstituted amide thereof, wherein X is a polymethylene chain containing 3 to 7 carbon atoms inclusive, which chain may be substituted by an --OH group, to a patient having such a condition.
Claim 2
Independent Claim 133 words
A method of treatment of a condition of the gastro-intestinal tract selected from the group consisting of Crohn's disease, atrophic gastritis, ulcerative colites, proctitis, coeliac disease, regional ileitis, peptic ulceration, irritable bowel syndrome and gastro-intestinal bleeding induced by the administration of an anti-inflammatory, which method comprises per os administration of a daily dosage of from 20 to 4,000 mg. of a member selected from the group consisting of a compound of the formula ##STR3## a therapeutically acceptable salt, an alkyl C 1 to 10 ester, a mono-alkyl C 1 to 10 amide, a di-alkyl C 1 to 10 amide and an unsubstituted amide thereof, wherein X is a polymethylene chain containing 3 to 7 carbon atoms inclusive, which chain may be substituted by an --OH group, to a patient having such a condition.
