Figure 4

Efficacy of a single flurbiprofen 8.75 mg or placebo lozenge over six hours. ANOVA was used to compare flurbiprofen 8.75 mg (n = 101) and placebo (n = 97 up to two hours, n = 96 from three to six hours, as one patient withdrew from the study) for the effects of a single dose on absolute mean change over six hours in A) sore throat pain (on the STPIS), B) difficulty swallowing (on the DSS), and C) swollen throat (on the SwoTS). Error bars represent the 95% CIs. *P <0.05, **P <0.01, ***P <0.001 compared with placebo. ANOVA, analysis of variance; CI, confidence interval; DSS, Difficulty Swallowing Scale; LS, Least square; STPIS, Sore Throat Pain Intensity Scale; SwoTS, Swollen Throat Scale.
