    Pre-anaesthetic medication refers to drugs administered before general anesthesia to make it safer. These drugs provide sedation to relieve anxiety, analgesia to relieve pain, and inhibit the parasympathetic nervous system to decrease secretions and prevent laryngospasm. They also act as anti-emetics, decrease gastric acid secretion, and have synergistic effects with anesthetics. Common pre-anesthetic drugs include benzodiazepines, opioids, anticholinergics, anti-emetics, antacids, and proton pump inhibitors. The objectives are to reduce risks and make anesthesia safer for the patient.
