Methods: Patients of 18 to 65 years old, who received elective gynecological laparoscopic surgery under general anesthesia, were randomized into either the pyridoxine or control group.

Background: For high-risk patients, adding a third antiemetic drug to dual postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) prophylaxis is controversial. Given the established antiemetic properties of midazolam, this study compared the combination of low-dose dexamethasone-ondansetron and midazolam with high-dose dexamethasone-ondansetron.
Methods: A total of 300 female patients scheduled for breast surgery were recruited and randomly assigned to two groups.
