title: [Comparative study of the occurrence of gastrointestinal side-effects of tenoxicam and other nonsteroidal antirheumatic agents in patients with rheumatoid arthritis].
abstract: This research tries to determine the difference between granular tenoxicam (Tilcotil Roche) and other non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs administered to patients with rheumatoid arthritis. The research comprised 143 patients with rheumatoid arthritis divided in two groups (71 + 72). As regards patients with rheumatoid arthritis, granular tenoxicam of a twenty-miligram dose daily showed both a good clinical effectiveness and a good bearing in long-term medicine taking, rarely causing gastrointestinal side effects, compared to other nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs in peroral taking.
