Summary
Many drugs with various mechanisms of action are used for postcaesarean pain relief. Although
the response to pain relief is sometimes believed to be individual, it is very important to
establish the most effective with the least adverse effects type of oral analgesia for women
after caesarean section. Optimal pain control post-caesarean section will benefit not only
the mother and her baby, but also a healthcare system. Optimal pain control may shorten the
time spent in hospital after caesarean section and, therefore, reduce healthcare costs.
