Randomized Controlled Trial
Pooled Post Hoc Analysis of Population Pharmacokinetics of Oxycodone and Acetaminophen Following Multiple Oral Doses of Biphasic Immediate-Release/Extended-Release Oxycodone/Acetaminophen Tablets.
To examine whether biphasic immediate-release (IR)/extended-release (ER) oxycodone (OC)/acetaminophen (APAP) 7.5/325-mg tablets have clinically relevant variability in population pharmacokinetics (PK). ⋯ Dose adjustments of < 50% are not clinically relevant for IR/ER OC/APAP 7.5/325-mg tablets considering the approved dose of 1 to 2 tablets every 8 to 12 hours; thus, adjustment may be necessary for large deviations from normal body weight but not for sex.

Randomized Controlled Trial
[The effectiveness of preemptive analgesic techniques on postoperative analgesia in patients undergoing open septorhinoplasty].
A comparison was made of effects of preincisional intravenous (IV) dexketoprofen trometamol and acetaminophen on postoperative pain, analgesic requirement, hemodynamic parameters, postoperative tramadol consumption, and patient satisfaction in patients undergoing elective septorhinoplasty. ⋯ It was observed that both preemptive IV dexketoprofen trometamol and acetaminophen were effective for postoperative analgesia in early postoperative period in elective septorhinoplasty under general anesthesia; however, preemptive dexketoprofen trometamol was more effective than acetaminophen for postoperative analgesia.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Comparison of Intravenous Morphine vs Paracetamol in Sciatica: A Randomized Placebo Controlled Trial.
The objective was to compare intravenous morphine and intravenous acetaminophen (paracetamol) for pain treatment in patients presenting to the emergency department with sciatica. ⋯ Morphine and acetaminophen are both effective for treating sciatica at 30 minutes. However, morphine is superior to acetaminophen.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyCOMPARISON OF THE EFFECTS OF PREEMPTIVE INTRAVENOUS AND RECTAL ACETAMINOPHEN ON PAIN MANAGEMENT AFTER INGUINAL HERNIORRHAPHY IN CHILDREN: A PLACEBO-CONTROLLED STUDY.
Postoperative pain management is a critical concern in pediatric surgery. Acetaminophen is the safest and most widely used analgesic in children. The present study compared the analgesic efficacy of intravenous (IV) and rectal acetaminophen versus placebo in children undergoing inguinal herniorrhaphy. ⋯ Both IV and rectal acetaminophen were more effective than placebo in pain relief after inguinal hernia repair in children. They were also associated with lower frequencies of postoperative vomiting. The greatest analgesic efficacy of both forms was observed during the first two hours after surgery.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative StudyComparison of the analgesic effect of intravenous acetaminophen with that of flurbiprofen axetil on post-breast surgery pain: a randomized controlled trial.
Acetaminophen is known to be a relatively weak analgesic with fewer side effects than nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). This study aimed to determine whether intravenous (iv) acetaminophen produces comparable analgesic effects to those of flurbiprofen (positive control drug), an intravenously injectable NSAID, after partial mastectomies. The primary outcome assessed was pain intensity during the first 24 h after the operation, and the secondary outcome was the satisfaction rating at discharge. ⋯ Acetaminophen produces an equivalent analgesic effect to flurbiprofen in post-partial mastectomy patients.
