Intramuscular pentazocine versus diclofenac suppository and intramuscular pentazocine for postcaesarean section pain relief-A double blind randomized controlled trial |
Brief summary describing the background
and objectives of the trial
|
Postoperative pain is a common problem following caesarean section. The unimodal approach of using pentazocine as postcaesarean pain relief is no longer popular and acceptable, hence the need for a safe, easily available and effective multimodal approach.
Objectives: To compare the efficacy, side effects, and level of satisfaction of intramuscular pentazocine alone with combination of diclofenac suppository and intramuscular pentazocine
