It also leads to less respiratory depression compared with other sedatives.[7,14] Research evidence has shown that this drug protects the body (including heart, nerves, etc.) against ischemia and hypoxic injury.[7,15] Therefore, dexmedetomidine can be one of the best options for reducing pain after surgery.[7,8,9] Gabapentin was first Gabapentin for Back Pain: Q.

These results do not support the routine use of pregabalin or gabapentin for the management of postoperative pain in adult patients,” wrote lead author Michael Verret, MD, a resident at Laval University in Quebec City. After taking the gabapentin for two weeks he developed the clinical characteristics of cholestasis—namely, jaundice, dark urine, pale stool in association with fatigue, and epigastric tenderness. Physical examination confirmed jaundice and the previously noted retinopathy and neuropathy. Do you take Gabapentin and have Gallbladder disease? How to use the study?

Additionally, preemptive Gabapentin as an adjunctive drug could be more effective in reducing the severity of GI symptoms in patients with dyspepsia, especially neurological symptoms (such as pain, reflux, and indigestion).

The removal of gabapentin and the administration of steroids resulted in the normalization of liver test abnormalities. reducing pain intensity after surgery. The present study is aimed at examining the sedative and analgesic effects of gabapentin and dexmedetomidine in patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Methods: This was a double-blinded clinical trial involving 40 patients who were candidates for laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The patients were randomly allotted in two groups of dexmedetomidine Gabapentin is a unique anticonvulsant that is used as adjunctive therapy in management of epilepsy and for neuropathic pain syndromes.
