Comparision of Nimesulide and Paracetamol Tablets

The effectivity and tolerability of nimesulide were compared with those of paracetamol in an exceedingly non blind randomized study that recruited 110 kids (64 males, 46 females; aged 3 to 6 years) with inflammation of the higher tract and fever.

Nimesulide suspension (1.5 mg/kg three times daily) or paracetamol sirup (10 mg/kg four times daily) were administered orally till fever resolved. blood heat was recorded and native pain and general discomfort assessed.

Nimesulide was as effective as paracetamol in reducing fever, local pain, and general discomfort. Nimesulide therefore appears to be a minimum of as effective as paracetamol in terms of antipyretic and anti inflammatory activity in children with inflammation of the upper tract and fever.

The other recent study with the patients aged between twelve and sixty years on the premise of analgesic effectiveness and tolerability has well-tried that the analgesic results of Nimesulide had a faster onset (<15 minutes) and was stronger (based on patient opinion). And were well tolerated.

Nimesulide is suggested for the shortest length necessary to regulate symptoms in patients with acute pain or primary dysmenorrhoea.
