Perioperative Use of Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs: Results of a UK Regional Audit
Clinical Drug Investigation, 10/15/09
Allen SC et al. – These data reveal that NSAIDs were still widely used as analgesics for many surgical procedures at the time of the audit. Intravenous (IV) NSAID administration is the preferred route because of its reliability and speed of onset. The results of this audit indicated significant use of IV NSAIDs (ketorolac, diclofenac and ketoprofen) not in accordance with manufacturers' recommendations, with some NSAIDs even being used in the absence of a product licence for use by the IV route. This may be due to a lack of a satisfactory licensed product. A new formulation of IV diclofenac may fulfil this currently unmet need.
