ABSTRACT
Analgesic effect of parenteral piroxicam in post operative pain was evaluated in 86 subjects undergoing general surgical operations in 1989-90. This drug gave satisfactory results in 75.6% of the patients. No untoward effects were noted except some local pain at the site of injection. The average time of onset of analgesia was 24.5 minutes with the duration of complete analgesia of 24 hours in 66% of the cases who had satisfactory results. We conclude that Piroxicam is a safe efficient and long acting drug for the post operative pain
