  • Title: Ketoprofen suppositories in rheumatological practice.
    Author: Simon L, Blotman F.
    Journal: Rheumatol Rehabil; 1976; Suppl():65-6. PubMed ID: 796948.
    Abstract:
    Preliminary results are reported on 30 patients treated with suppositories of ketoprofen at a dosage of two daily (200 mg). Local side-effects, rectal burning and difficulty in retaining the suppository, were recorded in seven patients and caused treatment to be stopped from the first day, and in five others local (burning) or systemic (gastric pain) side-effects caused treatment to be abandoned at a later period. Interest in the suppository presentation may lie in its more prolonged action and this presentation, when given at night, may improve the over-all results obtained with ketoprofen capsules in inflammatory rheumatism.
