Per rectal diclofenac tablet (suppository) and inraveous fluid (Ringer lactate) are already proven for decreasing adverse effect (pancreatitis) after an endoscopic procedure (ERCP). We will be combining both methods to see whether they can further decrease the adverse effect of ERCP.

A prospective randomized clinical study to compare efficacy of intravenous ringer lactate or diclofenac suppository or combination of both in prevention of post endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography(ERCP) pancreatitis.
