RESUMO
This study was conducted to compare the analgesic action of Lysine Clonixinate (LC) vs Paracetamol/Codeine association (PC) in the treatment of postepisiotomy pain in primiparae women: 131 primiparous patients with moderate-to-severe postepisiotomy pain were enrolled in a double blind dummy design study and randomly allocated to either treatment with fixed doses of LC 125 mg or Paracetamol 500 mg+Codeine 30 mg 6 qh during 24 hours. Intensity of spontaneous pain and pain on walking was assessed according to a visual analog scale (VAS) and patient's assessment before receiving treatment and after 1, 2, 6 and 24 hours. Intensity of spontaneous pain was reduced in 24 hours from 4.28 +/- 2.11 to 1.73 +/- 1.46 (P < 0.0001) in the LC group and from 4.78 +/- 2.08 to 1.90 +/- 1.72 in the PC-treated group (p < 0.0001); with no significant differences between treatments. 54% of the patients treated with LC and 55% of those receiving PC showed onset of analgesic action 30 minutes following dose administration. Patient's final global assessment revealed that 95% of LC-treated patients and 96% of the PC group showed total or partial pain relief during the first treatment day. No sleep disturbances were seen during the night in 75% of patients. Only one patient receiving LC showed nausea not requiring treatment discontinuation. It is concluded that both treatments are equally effective to relieve moderate-to-severe postepisiotomy pain.

PatientYs final global assessment revealed that 95 percent of LC-treated patients and 96 percent of the PC group showed total or partial pain relief during the first treatment day. No sleep disturbances were seen during the night in 75 percent of patients. Only one patient reveiving LC showed nausea not requiring treatment discontinuation. It is concluded that both treatments are equally effective to relieve moderate-to-severe postepisiotomy pain. (AU)
