A follow-up study of the use of benoral tablets in non-articular rheumatism.
A multicentric follow-up study was conducted in general practice to assess disease characteristics which determine analgesic needs in non-articular rheumatism. Of 127 patients studied, those with chronic conditions such as brachial fibrositis and tennis elbow with a history extending over more than a month tended to require a longer course of treatment than those whose symptoms related to muscles of the trunk and spine. For most patients a one or two week course of Benoral tablets proved adequate in length and efficacy.
