Researchers are comparing the effects of two oral medications, Gabapentin and Diclofenac sodium, given before surgery to control pain after laparoscopic cholecystectomy in adults. The goal is to see which medicine provides better postoperative pain relief. The study is sponsored by Sohag University and involves adult patients diagnosed with chronic cholecystitis. Participants are randomly assigned to one of two groups: one group receives 600 mg of oral Gabapentin two hours before surgery, and the other group receives 100 mg of oral Diclofenac sodium two hours before surgery. Both treatments are given before the operation to compare their effects on pain after surgery. During the study, researchers will monitor pain levels eight hours after the operation to evaluate the effectiveness of each medication. Participants will be observed throughout the perioperative period, and their responses to the treatments will be assessed. The study includes adults aged 20 to 60 years and aims to provide clear information about pain management after laparoscopic gallbladder removal.
