[Preliminary results with a new non-steroidal antirheumatic drug (author's transl)]. 1975

O Frank, and M Klicpera, and G Kolarz, and O Scherak

Thirty patients with classical or definite rheumatoid arthritis were treated over a 4-week period with diftalone, a new non-steroidal antirheumatic drug. The daily dosage ranged from 500 to 1000 mg. A good objective response was achieved in 69% of the patients. Diftalone was well tolerated. Side effects were noted in 11.8% of patients on 500 mg diftalone daily and in 18.8% of cases treated with the highest dosage (1000 mg daily). The optimum daily dosage appears to be 750 mg.
