Pre-emptive analgesic effect of lornoxicam in mandibular third molar surgery: a prospective, randomized, double-blind clinical trial

The aim of this study was to establish whether the pre-emptive use of lornoxicam (16mg) in third molar surgery ensures successful postoperative analgesia and reduces rescue analgesic intake when compared to postoperative application, and in comparison with placebo. Ninety patients were split randomly into three groups: group A received lornoxicam 60min before surgery and placebo 60min after surgery; group B received placebo 60min before surgery and lornoxicam 60min after surgery; group C received placebo 60min before surgery and placebo 60min after surgery.
