Abstract

The efficacy of 40 mg of methylprednisolone given intravenously before operation in combination with orally administered rapid-release and sustained-release diclofenac preparations in preventing postoperative pain after third molar removal was studied. The administration of methylprednisolone and diclofenac resulted in greater pain relief than did administration of diclofenac alone.
