Abstract
One hundred and ninety-nine children received either lorazepam 0.05 mg kg−1 or trimeprazine 3 mg kg−1 as oral premedication in a double-blind trial. Lorazepam proved more palatable and produced a cheerful demeanour, but possessed no significant advantages on overall assessment before surgery Following operation, restlessness with vomiting, and evidence of retrograde amnesia occurred more frequently with lorazepam.Keywords
