  • Title: Clinical analgesic assay of oral zomepirac and intramuscular morphine.
    Author: Wallenstein SL, Rogers A, Kaiko RF, Heidrich G, Houde RW.
    Journal: NIDA Res Monogr; 1979; 27():261-7. PubMed ID: 121342.
    Abstract:
    Zomepirac appears to be an unexpectedly effective oral, non-opioid analgesic. The relative potency of oral zomepirac is roughly 1/5 to 1/8 that of intramuscular morphine. Visual analogues of pain relief offer a reliable alternative to verbal categorical scales, and may provide some advantages in assays of peak drug effect, and in relatively small patient populations.
