Randomized Controlled Trial
Randomized split-mouth study for evaluating the efficacy of nimesulide and nimesulide + Thiocolchicoside combination following impacted mandibular third molar surgery.
This study aimed to evaluate acute postoperative pain management and trismus in 35 patients undergoing extractions of the two mandibular third molars, in mesioangular positions, at two different visits who consumed nimesulide + thiocolchicoside or only nimesulide. ⋯ Nimesulide (100 mg) + thiocolchicoside (8 mg) combination has higher analgesic efficacy and better trismus outcomes compared to only nimesulide (100 mg) when orally administered following mandibular third molar surgeries.
