Parecoxib, propacetamol, and their combination for analgesia after total hip arthroplasty: a randomized non‐inferiority trial

This study assessed non‐inferiority of parecoxib vs. combination parecoxib+propacetamol and compared the opioid‐sparing effects of parecoxib, propacetamol, and parecoxib+propacetamol vs. placebo after total hip arthroplasty.
