Fentanyl and atropine are drugs used for analgesia during induction and for premedication, respectively. The aim of this study was to observe the effect of atropine used for premedication on cough developing in association with fentanyl use during anesthesia induction. This was a single-blind, prospective, multi-arm, parallel, randomized clinical trial involving 120 patients between ages 3 and 15 years undergoing general anesthesia.

Here, we aimed to investigate effects of pheniramine maleate (PM), an antihistaminic agent, and compare it with lidocaine on fentanyl induced cough.

We propose that pheniramine maleate, an antihistaminic, may suppress this cough. We aim to observe the effect of pheniramine on fentanyl-induced cough during anesthesia induction.
