Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Patients presented with primary dysmenorrhea composed the study population. One gram paracetamol and 100 mg tramadol in 100 ml saline with a slow infusion were compared in ceasing dysmenorrhea in the emergency department

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Patients over 18 years old who presented with dysmenorrhea composed the study population. Patients received painkiller within the last six hours, physical findings consistent with peritoneal irritation, allergy to the study drugs, renal or liver failure, drug addiction, pregnancy or woman with lactation and denied to give inform consent were the exclusion criteria. The pain of the study patients is measured with the visual analogue scale at baseline, 15th and 30th minutes and 1 hour after study drug administration. At the end of the 60 minutes, rescue drug need is also recorded.
