Double-blind, placebo-controlled, randomized clinical trial of sublingual or intramuscular piroxicam in the treatment of renal colic. A comparative study. [2007] Aims: To investigate the therapeutic effect of the fast-dissolving dosage form (FDDF) of sublingual piroxicam [generic for Feldene] on renal colic compared with the intramuscular (IM) injection form of the same agent in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial. Methods: 80 patients were assigned to one of two treatment groups: Group 1 received 40 mg piroxicam FDDF sublingual tablets and IM injection of 2 ml distilled water...
[Randomized study comparing piroxicam analgesia and tramadol analgesia during outpatient electromagnetic extracorporeal lithotripsy] [2006.04] CONCLUSION: Piroxicam [generic for Feldene] and tramadol are two analgesics commonly used in clinical practice and both are suitable for the treatment of pain during outpatient extracorporeal lithotripsy.
Sublingual piroxicam for postoperative analgesia: preoperative versus postoperative administration: a randomized, double-blind study. [2006.03] Nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs have been used to obtain preemptive analgesia. We investigated, in this randomized, double-blind study, whether sublingual (s.l.) piroxicam [generic for Feldene] given before was more effective than that given after surgery.Because of the low pain scores in both groups, the clinical relevance of these findings is not clear from this study.
Comparison of prednisolone with piroxicam in complex regional pain syndrome following stroke: a randomized controlled trial. [2006.02] BACKGROUND: Complex regional pain syndrome (CRPS) following stroke aggravates morbidity. CRPS is categorized as CRPSI when no clear nerve injury is defined, and CRPSII when associated with clear nerve injury.
Clinical evaluation of piroxicam-FDDF and azithromycin in the prevention of complications associated with impacted lower third molar extraction. [2005.12] Combined treatments with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and antibiotics may offer significant benefits in the prevention of pain and infections associated with oral surgery. In this study, piroxicam [generic for Feldene] and azithromycin were administered to patients undergoing dental extraction to examine the efficacy of piroxicam in the prevention of post-operative pain and inflammatory complications, either in the absence or in the presence of a concomitant antibiotic treatment...
Clinical Trials Related to Feldene (Piroxicam)
A Double Blind, Double Dummy, Randomized, Comparative Study Of The Efficacy And Safety Of Valdecoxib 40 Mg Twice Daily, As Needed In The First Menstrual Cycle Day And Then Once A Day, And Piroxicam 40 Mg Once A Day In The Treatment Of Patients With Primary Dysmenorrhea [Completed]
To compare the analgesic efficacy, safety, and tolerability of valdecoxib versus piroxicam in
subjects with moderate to severe menstrual cramping pain associated with primary
dysmenorrhea.
Comparative Study of Olive Oil With Piroxicam Gel in Osteoarthritis of the Knee [Recruiting]
this is a randomized double blinded trial which is conducted to measure the efficacy of
topical virgin olive oil on osteoarthritis of knee that will be done in contrast to standard
piroxicam gel.
Interaction Between Antihypertensives and Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) [Completed]
Multi-Centre European Photopatch Test Study [Not yet recruiting]
It is known that people can develop an allergic skin reaction to a substance which is placed
on the skin and then subjected to sunlight. This process is called Photocontact allergic
dermatitis. It is known that people can develop Photocontact allergic dermatitis to sunscreen
chemicals (filters) and also cream forms of pain-killing drugs called nonsteroidal
anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
The purpose of this study is to determine the frequency of Photocontact allergic dermatitis
to 19 sunscreen filters and 5 topical NSAIDs in 1,000 European patients who present to a
dermatologist with a sun-exposed site dermatitis.
Each participant will have the 24 test agents plus one control of petrolatum applied to the
skin of the back for 24 or 48 hours. After removal of the substances, the area of skin will
be exposed to a precise amount of ultraviolet-A light. The area is then assessed 24, 48 and
72 hours later to see if a photocontact allergic reaction has occured. This method is known
as photopatch testing.
The study will run for one year, during which time it is planned to recruit 1,000 patients.
Study of Lornoxicam or Ketorolac or Placebo for Post-Operative Pain After Bunionectomy [Completed]
To determine whether a single dose of intravenous lornoxicam is superior to intravenous
placebo for management of post-operative pain in patients who have surgical removal of a
bunion on the lower extremity. One-fourth of patients in this study will receive a single
dose of intravenous ketorolac for management of pain and one-fourth of patients in this study
will receive a single dose of an intravenous placebo.
