First seen Jan 11, 2026 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This study looks at whether giving dexamethasone, dexmedetomidine, or both can help the gut work normally again after laparoscopic gallbladder removal. About 160 adults having this surgery will receive one of these drugs or a placebo right after anesthesia. The main goal is to see if these drugs reduce gut-related problems like nausea, vomiting, and slow bowel recovery in the first two days after surgery.
