| Zusammenfassung: | A study was conducted in general practice to assess the efficacy and safety of isoxicam 200 mg once daily compared with indomethacin 25 mg 3 times a day in the treatment of acute exacerbations of osteoarthritis. Eight patients in the isoxicam group experienced definite drug-related adverse reactions as against 10 in the indomethacin group. A total of 38 patients (18 on isoxicam and 20 on indomethacin) suffered probably drug-related effects. Isoxicam therefore appeared to be better tolerated than indomethacin. |
