Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Comparison of the analgesic effect of ibuprofen with mesalamine after discectomy surgery in patients with lumbar disc herniation: a double-blind randomized controlled trial.
Pain management is an important component in the postoperative period following discectomy. ⋯ Since both drugs showed almost equal analgesic effect, considering its safety profile mesalamine, seems to be the preferred choice to alleviate post-discectomy surgery pain.
