TABOAS-FAVORECIDO, Ana; GONZALEZ-GONZALEZ, Yoana; ALONSO-CALVETE, Alejandra e JUSTO-COUSINO, Lorenzo A.. Effects of Non-Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs in Tendinopathies. Rev Cubana Ortop Traumatol [online]. 2022, vol.36, n.2 Epub 01-Jun-2022. ISSN 1561-3100.
Introduction:
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs are commonly used for the treatment of tendinopathies, but the evidence on this treatment is scarce.
Objective:
To carry out a systematic review about the effects of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in tendinopathies.
Methods:
A bibliographic search was carried out in PubMed, WOS, PEDro, Medline, Cinahl and SPORTDiscus. A total of 13 clinical trials with a mean methodological quality of 7.15/10 on the PEDro scale were included.
Conclusions:
In most of the articles, a short-term improvement in pain and functionality was observed with the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. The clinical trials included did not analyze the presence of inflammation in this pathology. More studies are needed to determine the role of inflammation in tendinopathy that justifies the use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
