COMPARATIVE ASSESSMENT OF FENOPROFEN AND PARACETAMOL GIVEN IN COMBINATION FOR PAIN AFTER SURGERY
Department of Anaesthesia, Western General Hospital Edinburgh
In a double-blind study of patients suffering from pain after surgery, fenoprofen 200 mg and paracetamol 500 mg was compared with each drug given separately and with a placebo. There was a significant difference between the combination and the placebo, whereas, separately, the drugs were only marginally better than the placebo in relieving pain. There was a significant linear trend indicating a better clinical result as the number of active components in the regimen was increased.
