For the purpose of studying the clinical effect of the analgesic, sedative and antiemetic actions of hydroxyzine administered postoperatively the author conducted three series of clinical trials from January, 1968 to March, 1970.
As the result, it was found that, in the case of the operation of the stomach, a combination of hydroxyzine with a narcotic is desirable, while in the case of the gallbladder, kidneys, uterus and other organs the use of a non-narcotic analgesic brings a greater analgesic effect, and at the same time the nausea and vomiting can be inhibited better.
On studying of the differences of pain caused by the variety of operating methods on stomach and gallbladder, the difference was observed on the latter. Continuous administration of hydroxyzine during and after operation showed its favorable effect regarding to the postoperative analgesic effect. Furthermore, combined use of hydroxyzine with analgesics, told us the possibility of saving the doses of combined analgesics.
