Summary

Morphine is usually used for pain relief after cesarean delivery. However, sometimes it is not available, the patient might be allergic to morphine or intolerant to its side effects. Hydromorphone, another drug from the same class, might be used alternatively, but we need to prove that it is not inferior to morphine.
