Abstract
Summary: The analgesic efficacy of a single intramuscular dose of 75 mg diclofenac given after elective Caesarean section was studied in 50 women in a double‐blind randomised manner using a patient‐controlled analgesia system. The mean 18 h papavaretum consumption of the placebo group was significantly greater (91.4 mg compared to 61.4 mg). Subjective experience of pain and observed sedation were significantly greater in the control group up to 6 h after operation.Keywords
