Brief Summary

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

This study aims to evaluate the effect of combined duloxetine and IV Magnesium sulphate to decrease acute and chronic post mastectomy pain.

The study will be conducted in National Cancer Institute and all the participants will be enrolled from female patients scheduled for modified radical mastectomy under general anesthesia in National Cancer Institute, Cairo University.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

It has been reported recently that Duloxetine improved the quality of recovery in patients subjected to hysterectomy. In this context, mastectomy has a negative consequence starting from cancer diagnosis to the squeal of cancer-related treatments and it has been estimated that 20%-30% of patients with breast cancer suffer from depression and anxiety. Magnesium also antagonizes the release of inflammatory mediators such as histamine, serotonin, and cytokines in peripheral tissues.
