Proper control of postoperative pain is one of the major challenges after surgery. Such pains result in physical complications, increased metabolism, exacerbations of underlying diseases, and increased blood pressure. The aim of the present study was to compare the effect of apotel and pregabalin on postoperative pain among patients undergoing lower limb surgery.
