Chemical Property Profile of Mefenamic Acid
Property Insights of Mefenamic Acid
The XLogP value of 5.1 indicates that Mefenamic Acid is lipophilic (fat-soluble), which may influence its absorption, distribution, and formulation strategy. With a topological polar surface area (TPSA) of 49.3 Ų, Mefenamic Acid exhibits relatively low polarity, potentially indicating favorable cell membrane permeability. Following Lipinski's Rule of Five, Mefenamic Acid has 2 hydrogen bond donor(s) and 3 hydrogen bond acceptor(s), which may warrant consideration for formulation optimization.
