Brief Summary
The study will investigate the effects of single dose pre-operative oral dose of gabapentin (1200) on post -operative pain scores and oral analgesic requirements.
Detailed Description
The study will benefit patients in reducing post-operative pain scores as well as reduction in oral analgesic consumption. Gabapentin has been shown to reduce post operative pain pain scores in breast surgery, hysterectomy , spinal surgery, orthopedic and thyroid surgery
