RT Journal Article SR Electronic T1 Difflam - a topical NSAID JF Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin JO Drug Ther Bull FD BMJ Publishing Group Ltd SP 19 OP 20 DO 10.1136/dtb.24.5.19 VO 24 IS 5 YR 1986 UL http://dtb.bmj.com/content/24/5/19.abstract AB Difflam (Riker), a topical anti-inflammatory drug, is marketed for the relief of symptoms of painful inflammatory conditions: the cream (benzydamine 3%) for musculoskeletal conditions such as sprains, and the oral rinse (benzydamine 0.15% in a green liquid*) for pharyngitis and stomatitis. Benzydamine seems to be the only non-salicylate NSAID marketed for topical use, apart from oxyphenbutazone (in Tanderil eye ointment).
