One hour prior to surgery, Group, I was given an oral placebo surgery, and Group II received oral gabapentin 600 mg. PONV prevalence, VAS, and the requirement for rescue analgesia were reported. There was a significant decrease in analgesia requirements. And a lower post-operative pain score in group II. The risk of nausea and vomiting following surgery was similarly decreased in group II.
