[Ibuprofen for pain treatment following dental surgery. A comparative prospective randomized study]
Abstract
The efficacy of postoperative pain treatment after dental surgery procedures depends not only on the type of substance used but also on the time it is taken and the dose administered. Direct postoperative administration of 400 mg Ibuprofen (2nd administration after 6 hours) resulted in considerably greater pain relief, without increasing the risk for the patient, than when the drug was taken as required.
