    AbstractThe anti-emetic effects of low-dose droperidol (1.25 mg), ultra-low-dose droperidol (0.25 mg) and a placebo were compared in patients admitted for day-case dental anaesthesia. Ultra-low-dose droperidol produced a significant decrease in the subjective feeling of nausea without delaying recovery or discharge from the hospital (p less than 0.05). Low-dose droperidol did not significantly reduce nausea (p greater than 0.05) and prolonged the recovery time (p less than 0.05).
