Summary

Neuraxial narcotics are commonly used in obstetric patients for cesarean delivery to help with pain control over the first 24 hours after the surgery. The aim is to evaluate effectiveness of promethazine (IMP) treatment of intrathecal morphine induced pruritus (ITIMIP). A treatment for ITMIP, other than naloxone, will allow for increased use of intrathecal narcotics and decrease the use of systemic opioids in the initial post-operative period.
