A recent study published in theJournal of Clinical and Economic Sciencesannounces the availability of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) in retail stores in Canada, which have been shown to reduce pain and inflammation. The study was funded by the Canadian Drug Development Agency, the Canadian Medical Association, and the Public Health Agency of Canada. It also was reported in theonline publication, published by theBritish Medical Journal, that the benefits of using these drugs are greater for those with chronic pain than for those without chronic pain. The study concluded that, compared to placebo, NSAIDs significantly reduce pain in patients with chronic pain.
The study was presented at the Annual Meeting of the American College of Physicians held in Toronto in September 2009. It was based on data from two studies that have been conducted across the United States and Canada. The first study compared NSAIDs to non-NSAIDs. The second study compared NSAIDs to aspirin in patients with acute, localized, or primary, primary non-steroidal anti-inflammatory pain.Painstudies in both studies were reviewed and analyzed to determine which drugs were more effective for pain management. The two studies were published inThe Journal of Clinical and Economic Sciences. The Canadian study was published in April 2009. The study included more than 30,000 patients with acute, localized, or primary non-steroidal anti-inflammatory pain. In the acute study, compared to the placebo group, the NSAID group had a significantly greater reduction in pain than the aspirin group. The NSAID group also experienced a significantly greater reduction in pain in the acute study than the placebo group.
The NSAIDs in the acute study included diclofenac (Fenarop®, Flector®), ibuprofen (Motrin®, Motrin®), naproxen (Aleve®, Naprosyn®), and ketoprofen (Ketorol®) and, compared to the placebo group, were effective at reducing pain. The NSAID-treated patients experienced a significantly greater reduction in pain in the acute study than the placebo group. The NSAID-treated patients also experienced a significantly greater reduction in pain than the placebo group.
The researchers conclude that the NSAIDs in the acute study provided an advantage over the placebo in pain management. However, they note that the use of these drugs in the acute study was associated with higher rates of adverse events. They also note that these drugs were not effective at reducing pain in patients who had acute pain and did not need to be treated with NSAIDs. They also note that the use of NSAIDs in the acute study was associated with increased rates of adverse events. They also note that the NSAID-treated patients had significantly less pain relief, and were also more responsive to pain management compared to patients treated with the NSAIDs.

The following abstract is an excerpt fromPain,published by the, which was written by a clinical research associate.Nausea is a common complaint in the United States. While it is not uncommon, nausea can be a symptom of chronic, acute pain. This is a very common complaint, but it can be difficult to diagnose. The mainstay of treatment for nausea includes:analgesicssuch as aspirin, ibuprofen (Motrin®, Advil®, Aleve®), or naproxen (Aleve®). NSAIDs are often prescribed to treat nausea.The National Institutes of Health, the American College of Physicians, the American Academy of Family Physicians, and the American College of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology recommend the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for acute, localized, or primary non-steroidal anti-inflammatory pain. The first study compared the effectiveness of NSAIDs to non-NSAIDs in acute pain.The National Institutes of Health and the American Academy of Family Physicians have recently reviewed the results of the Canadian study. They concluded that NSAIDs are equally effective at reducing pain, but that the NSAIDs may offer a greater reduction in pain, and thus may be preferred over the non-NSAIDs for pain management. They further note that the benefits of using NSAIDs in acute pain patients may be greater than the benefits of NSAIDs in acute pain. In addition, they conclude that the benefits of NSAIDs do not outweigh the risks associated with acute pain.
