Abstract

The randomized, double-blind trial was designed to evaluate rectal diclofenac in the relief of perineal pain after trauma during childbirth. Women were randomly allocated to either diclofenac (n=67) or placebo suppositories (n=66). The use of rectal nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug suppositories is a simple, effective and safe method of reducing the pain experienced by women following perineal trauma within the first 24 hours after childbirth.
