Economic analysis of celecoxib versus diclofenac plus omeprazole for the treatment of arthritis in patients at risk of ulcer disease. [2003.07.15]
AIM: To evaluate the economic impact of celecoxib therapy vs. diclofenac plus omeprazole therapy for the treatment of arthritis in Chinese patients with a high risk of bleeding, from the perspective of a public health organization in Hong Kong... CONCLUSIONS: Celecoxib therapy appears to cost less compared with diclofenac plus omeprazole for treatment of arthritis in Chinese patients with a high risk of bleeding.
Diclofenac reduces the incidence of acute pancreatitis after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography. [2003.06]
BACKGROUND & AIMS: Acute pancreatitis following endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography presents a unique opportunity for prophylaxis and early modification of the disease process because the initial triggering event is temporally well defined and takes place in the hospital. We report a prospective, single-center, randomized, double-blind controlled trial to determine if rectal diclofenac reduces the incidence of pancreatitis following cholangiopancreatography... CONCLUSIONS: This trial shows that rectal diclofenac given immediately after endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography can reduce the incidence of acute pancreatitis.
Diclofenac-loaded biopolymeric nanosuspensions for ophthalmic application. [2009.03]
Polymeric nanoparticle suspensions (NS) were prepared from poly(lactide-co-glycolide) and poly(lactide-co-glycolide-leucine) {poly[Lac(Glc-Leu)]} biodegradable polymers and loaded with diclofenac sodium (DS), with the aim of improving the ocular availability of the drug...
Hollow microspheres of diclofenac sodium - a gastroretentive controlled delivery system. [2008.10]
Most of the floating systems have an inherent drawback of high variability in the GI transit time, invariably affecting the bioavailability of drug. To overcome it, a multiple unit floating system with extended GI transit time, capable of distributing widely throughout the GIT for effective enteric release of the drug has been sought...
Irregular absorption profiles observed from diclofenac extended release tablets can be predicted using a dissolution test apparatus that mimics in vivo physical stresses. [2008.10]
The prediction of the in vivo drug release characteristics of modified release oral dosage forms by in vitro dissolution tests is a prerequisite for successful product development. A novel dissolution test apparatus that mimics the physical conditions experienced by an oral formulation during gastrointestinal transit was developed...
Clinical Trials Related to Voltaren-XR (Diclofenac Extended Release)
Study to Compare the Pharmacokinetics of IV Diclofenac Sodium (2 Doses)Versus Oral Diclofenac Potassium [Completed]
The purpose of this study is to assess the pharmacokinetic parameters of intravenous
diclofenac sodium (DIC075V) 18. 75 mg and 37. 5 mg following single- and multiple-dose
administration, as compared to oral diclofenac potassium (Cataflam® 50 mg), the approved
reference product.
Assess Platelet Function and Safety After Administration of Injectable Diclofenac Compared to Ketorolac and Aspirin in Adult Male Volunteers [Completed]
This study will assess platelet function and safety in healthy male volunteers following
doses of intravenous diclofenac compared to cataflam, intravenous ketorolac and aspirin.
Diclofenac Patch for Treatment of Mild to Moderate Ankle Sprain [Active, not recruiting]
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of once daily application of
a diclofenac sodium patch to the skin near or over the painful area. In this study, the
location being studied will be either the left or right ankle.
The secondary purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of a diclofenac
patch on the skin.
Diclofenac Patch for Treatment of Mild to Moderate Tendonitis or Bursitis [Completed]
The primary purpose of this study is to assess the effectiveness of once daily application of
a diclofenac sodium patch to the skin near or over the painful area. In this study, the
location being studied will be one of the following: the affected shoulder, elbow, or wrist.
The secondary purpose of this study is to assess the safety and tolerability of the
diclofenac patch on the subject's skin, in the location being studied.
Efficacy and Safety of Diclofenac Sodium Gel (DSG) in Knee Osteoarthritis [Completed]
This study will test the efficacy and safety of topical diclofenac sodium gel in the
treatment of knee osteoarthritis.
