Pregabalin Versus Celecoxib on Sevoflurane and Analgesic Consumption in Spine Fixation Surgery

The anti-epileptic drugs such as gabapentin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID) such as celecoxib were used as a part of multimodal analgesia to control such pain. Gabapentin is an anticonvulsant drug that has analgesic effect in post-herpetic neuralgia, diabetic neuropathy, and neuropathic pain. Celecoxib is one of the NSAIDs, that its analgesic effect is reported in various studies by cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) inhibitor.

The aim of this randomized double-blinded study was to asses and compare the efficacy of using gabapentin versus celecoxib as a part of multimodal analgesia in perioperative hemodynamic control and pain relief in patients underwent posterior approach lumbar spine disc fixation surgery.
