title: Antirheumatic activity of fenclofenac.
abstract: This study has set out to establish whether fenclofenac has an antirheumatic effect in addition to its anti-inflammatory and analgesic activity. The results show that during the course of a 6-month study the drug improved clinical parameters, including the articular index, early morning stiffness, ring sizes, and grip strength, and produced changes in laboratory measurements such as the levels of C-reactive protein, IgG, and rheumatoid factor.
