In this article, we will discuss Sulindac and Acute Painful Shoulder. So, let’s get started.
Acute painful shoulder (Acute subacromial bursitis/supraspinatus tendinitis)
In patients with acute painful shoulder (acute subacromial bursitis/supraspinatus tendinitis), the anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity of Sulindac was demonstrated by clinical measurements that included: assessments by both patient and investigator of overall response; relief of night pain, spontaneous pain, and pain on active motion; decrease in local tenderness; and improvement in range of
motion measured by abduction, and internal and external rotation. In clinical studies in acute painful shoulder, Sulindac 300 to 400 mg daily and oxyphenbutazone 400 to 600 mg daily were shown to be
equally effective and well tolerated.
