Abstract
The analgesic effect of Voltaren suppository was studied with respect to post-tonsillectomy pain in children. A single dose of 25mg of Voltaren suppository was administered to 40 children under 16 years on the day of operation. The clinical response was excellent in 22, good in 10, fair in 4, poor in 1 and uncertain in 3 children. The rate of efficacy was 85%. The effect appeared within 1 hour in the effective cases. No side effect was observed in any of the children.
