About this trial

Although both dexmedetomidine and magnesium sulphate have been individually evaluated as adjuvants to local anesthetics, direct comparisons between the two agents in intraperitoneal instillation during laparoscopic cholecystectomy remain limited. Understanding their relative efficacy and safety could provide valuable guidance for optimizing perioperative analgesia in these patients.
