Chronic inflammatory pain is usually treated with oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). However, oral NSAIDs can cause some adverse events, and local preparation is an important alternative drug. Currently, small sample clinical studies show that loxoprofen sodium hydrogel patch (LX-P) has good analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects; however, there is a lack of realworld clinical research data. Patients and Methods: This study included 60 patients with chronic inflammatory pain. They were treated with LX-P without affecting their real-world treatment for two weeks. Results: After 2 weeks of continuous medication, 93.33% of the patients stated that the treatment was effective. Only 3.33% of the patients had a relapse after 4 weeks. Moreover, the swelling range and degree of swelling decreased markedly and the dysfunction of the pain site was markedly alleviated. The total satisfaction of patients after treatment reached 90.00%.
Conclusion:In this real-world observational study, LX-P showed good efficacy and safety in patients with chronic inflammatory pain.
