Both drugs, administered in a dose of 2 suppositories a day for 7 days, evidenced speedy, effective analgesic and anti-inflammatory activity combined with good tolerability. Specifically, as regards the pain component, nimesulide demonstrated a significantly more marked analgesic effect than flurbiprofen in the first two hours of treatment.
