Abstract

The aim of this retroperspective study was to assess the preference of analgesic drugs administered for pain control following dental extraction of teeth. The study was conducted in a  University based setting.The study group of this research were patients who reported to the clinics with moderate to severe toothache/ dental pain who required tooth extraction.Case sheets were reviewed between June 2019 to March 2020.Data were analyzed using SPSS software (IBM SPSS Statistics, Version 24.0, Armonk, NY: IBM Corp).  Chi square test was applied to find the association between the parameters and the level of significance.A total of 7888 patients were involved in this study.  45.7% were female patients and 54.3% were male patients. About 70.3% of the population falls in the age category 21-60 years.Around 45.8% of the population were prescribed with Paracetamol. The commonly prescribed combination analgesic of choice was Paracetamol and Aceclofenac for  26.6%  of the patients. We conclude that middle aged patients in the age group 21-60 years were prescribed Paracetamol as the first analgesic of choice for postoperative dental pain control.
