Abstract
Introduction. There are analgesics and diastolic drugs that can be administered by a paramedic on their own, without a medical descriptio.
The aim of the study. The aim of the study was to present the characteristics of drugs that can be coordinated by a paramedic in the treatment of pain.
Selection of material. The search was conducted in the Scopus database using the terms of analgesic therapy, paramedic 2001-2018. The literature found in the Google Scholar database was analysed for the highest number of citations. The literature se-lected in this way was used as the material for this work.
Conclusions. Competent behaviour of a paramedic at the place of the incident in a patient with headache requires the paramedic to know the mechanisms of action of drugs that the paramedic can administer on his/her own and to be able to assess the effective-ness of the analgesic treatment provided.
