To determine whether valdecoxib 40 mg twice a day the first day and then 40mg once a day until Day 7, was at least as effective as diclofenac 75 mg twice a day for 7 days, in treating acute first or second degree ankle sprain. The study also compared valdecoxib and diclofenac with respect to time to onset of pain relief (measured after the first dose), tolerability (adverse events) and time to return to Normal Function/Activity, among other measures.
