Abstract

Effective analgesia after open septorhinoplasty is still a constant concern. However, the information about appropriate pain management after the surgery is not sufficient yet. Therefore, this single blind randomized controlled trial was planned to determine whether the analgesic efficacy of a single dose of intravenous paracetamol differs from a single dose of rectal indomethacin in patients undergoing open septorhinoplasty.
