Abstract
Following an open pilot trial, meptazinol [m(3-ethyl-1-methyl-hexahydro-1-H-azepin-3-yl) phenol hydrochloride] was compared to pethidine in a single-blind study in women requiring analgesia during labor. Meptazinol provided significantly better analgesia than pethidine with similar but possibly less distressing maternal side effects. There were no obvious adverse effects in the newborn.This publication has 13 references indexed in Scilit:
