A double-blind crossover study was conducted in 15 patients with classical definite rheumatoid arthritis to compare the effect of sodium meclofenamate (300 mg daily) with placebo and indomethacin (100 mg daily). Each treatment was administered for 1 week to patients assigned at random to treatment sequences. The active drugs were shown to be significantly superior to placebo. Sodium meclofenamate alone reduced the articular index. Patient preference, however, was in favour of indomethacin.
