title: [Treatment of postoperative wound pain with suprofen].
abstract: The present randomized double-blind study was performed to investigate the analgesic effects of single doses of suprofen (alpha-methyl-4-(2-thienylcarbonyl)benzene acetic acid; Suprol) 200 mg, suprofen 400 mg paracetamol (APAP, acetaminophen) 650 mg, and combination suprofen 100 mg + APAP 650 mg versus placebo. The five treatment groups were homogeneous as to their demographic features and comprised 28--32 subjects each. Data for a total of 146 patients were evaluated. There were statistically significant differences between the therapeutic effect of the test preparations containing active substance on the one hand and placebo and the other hand. Of the active substances, the best results were obtained with the combination suprofen 100 mg + APAP 650 mg, followed by suprofen 400 mg and APAP 650 mg; there were hardly any differences in the results obtained with the two latter substances. Suprofen 200 mg ranked third. Statistical significance was only seen for the parameter pain intensity (SPID) on comparison of suprofen 100 mg + APAP 650 mg versus suprofen 200 mg. Side effects, homogeneously distributed over the treatment groups, were observed in four cases.
