Conclusion
This study confirmed that lornoxicam administered as a quick-release formulation in patients with acute low back pain is an effective and well tolerated analgesic, is not inferior to the equivalent formulation of diclofenac potassium in terms of onset of PAR, and provides a higher magnitude of analgesic effect with associated better global evaluation of the study medication.
