Diclofenac or acetaminophen for analgesia in paediatric tonsillectomy outpatients

Abstract

This study indicates that diclofenac was no more effective than high-dose acetaminophen (90 mg vs. 60 mg kg(-1) 24 h(-1)) for analgesia, but resulted in a lower incidence of nausea and vomiting in patients following tonsillectomy.
