This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of parecoxib injection in pain relief after laparoscopic surgeries. ⋯ Perioperative parecoxib administration was effective in reducing the proportion of patients who required adjuvant pain relief after laparoscopic surgeries without significant adverse events compared with placebo. The effect of parecoxib injection on immediate pain relief remains in question. Future RCTs with larger sample sizes are encouraged.
