Comparison of nimesulide and diclofenac in the prevention and treatment of painful inflammatory postoperative complications of general surgery

G Ramella et al. Drugs. 1993.

Abstract

In a double-blind study, 40 patients scheduled for saphenectomy or inguinal hernioplasty were randomly assigned to treatment with nimesulide (200mg 3 times daily) or diclofenac (100mg 3 times daily) administered rectally. Therapy with either drug resulted in significantly less pain, oedema and hyperaemia, and resolution of mild fever. No adverse reactions attributable to treatment were observed.
