PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: from 6 hours following drug intake after obturation to 72 hours (start with 6 hours first interval then at 12 hours intervals)

Population: We detect the effect of Trypsin 5 mg Chymotrypsin 5 mg (Ambezim G) on post-operative pain and compared its effect with the most known potent analgesic ibuprofen (Brufen) and with a combination of both drugs and with Placebo pills (Sugar pills) for better evaluation of its efficacy.

analgesic effect assessed by numerical rating scale. The minimum score value is zero. The maximum score value is ten. Maximum scores indicate the worst possible outcome.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: from 6 hours following drug intake after obturation to 72 hours (start with 6 hours first interval then at 12 hours intervals)

Population: We compared the result of each pharmaceutical alone with the result of a combination of both drugs in group Ibuprofen (Brufen) + Trypsin 5 mg Chymotrypsin 5 mg (Ambezim G) to conclude the secondary outcome (synergistic effect with NSAIDS).
