    In the classical discrete Gronwall inequality \(\{x_ n\leq a_ n+\sum^{n-1}_{j=n_ 0}b_ jx_ j,\quad n=n_ 0,...,N\quad implies\quad x_ n\leq a^*\prod^{n-1}_{j=n_ 0}(1+b_ j)\}\) the description of the multiplier \(a^*\) is improved and the use of such inequality in stability considerations for difference equations is illustrated.
