The effectiveness of phenazocine as an analgesic agent in postoperative patients has been established. The duration of action and the occurrence of undesirable side-effects of phenazocine, morphine, and meperidine have been compared in a blind study in which the three drugs were administered to postoperative patients in quantities sufficient to produce satisfactory analgesia. In this study there would appear to be no difference in the incidence of unwanted side-effects producep. by these three drugs. The analgesia produced by morphine would appear to last somewhat longer than is the case with meperidine or phenazocine.
