Due to adverse effects in some patients, the nursing council has banned the injection by nurses. Since then, there has been a change in treatment by using intravascular (IV) Tramadol.

At presence, there has been no research performed comparing the efficacy between these two drugs especially from the viewpoint of time dimension.
