Abstract
Can patients detect any difference between anti-inflammatory agents which clinical trials have shown to be equipotent (or more accurately not to be statistically different from one another)? Does it matter which drug is chosen for a specific disease? To answer these questions we have asked patients attending routine rheumatology outpatient clinics to try quartets of NSAIDs. So far 1200 patients have been recruited into eight quartets.
