Further look at dextropropoxyphene with or without paracetamol in the treatment of arthritis

Abstract
The analgesic effects of dextropropoxyphene and paracetamol and that of a combination of the two drugs were assessed in 24 patients who suffered from either rheumatoid arthritis or osteoarthritis. Dextropropoxyphene, which had a marginal effect on pain score, led to a more significant effect on patient well-being, particularly when it was the first drug given in the sequence. The addition of paracetamol had more of a negative than a positive effect on pain score and well-being.
