Résumé :

In a randomized, parallel-group study, 44 young adults with acute ankle sprains were treated with proglumetacin or diclofenac. The patients were examined daily for pain, swelling, and impaired mobility during the 7-day treatment period. The needed duration of physical therapy and the length of the break from sports activities were determined after the patients completely recovered. The clinical results showed that proglumetacin's efficacy was significantly greater and faster than that of diclofenac, especially on pain and swelling. Fewer gastric complaints were reported with proglumetacin than with diclofenac. © 1993 Excerpta Medica, Inc. All rights reserved.
