Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) is an easy procedure characterized by its minimal invasiveness, less post-operative pain and early recovery when compared to the open conventional cholecystectomy. However, patients who have undergone LC still complain of postoperative pain. It has been reported that ondansetron produces numbness when injected under the skin and has local anesthetic effect that is 15 times more potent than lidocaine the most widely used local anesthetic and probably explains its antiemetic action. It possesses anti-inflammatory, anesthetic, and analgesic properties by its multifaceted actions as a 5-HT3 receptor antagonist, a Na channel blocker, and a mu-opioid agonist which may have a potential role in decreasing pain. The study aimed to demonstrate the effectiveness of IP administration of ondansetron on pain management post LC.
