Abstract
A random-selection trial comparing fenbufen (Cinopal; Lederle) and reduction in training activity to reduction in training activity alone in over-use injuries in long-distance [human] runners is described. Fenbufen and reduction of training activity together were significantly superior to reduction of training activity alone and improved the signs and symptoms of over-use injuries in long-distance runners. Most of these injuries were of soft tissues, and in these cases fenbufen had a significant antiinflammatory effect.
