Phenazocine is an effective agent for use in children. The dosage range varies between 0.01 and 0.02 mg./kg. A reasonable dosage of phenazocine may be calculated as being approximately 1/10 that of morphine and l/10 that of meperidine. Phenazocine is an effective adjunct for use with nitrous oxide-oxygen anaesthesia, especially if the anaesthesiologist is skilled in assisted or controlled respiration techniques.

Note:

This paper was presented at the Second World Congress of Anaesthesiologists, Toronto, September 4–10, 1960. The study was carried on by the aid of a grant from Smith, Kline and French Laboratories, Inc.
