A clinical trial in oral surgery of the analgesic efficacy of a suprofen/codeine combination

Abstract

Suprofen as well as codeine have been shown to be effective analgesics. In this study, a 200-mg suprofen/60-mg codeine dose is scored for analgesic efficacy and safety compared to suprofen (200 mg), codeine (60 mg), and placebo. One hundred sixty-five healthy, adult patients were asked to rate degree of pain experienced over a six-hour period after medication. The combination treatment was found to offer maximum pain relief. Dentists should be aware that flank pain and renal function abnormalities have been reported in postmarketing surveillance.
