group L : will receive lidocaine
ACTIVE COMPARATORlidocaine Infusion will be given for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Thyroidectomy
group k : will receive ketamine
ACTIVE COMPARATORKetamine Infusion will be given for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Thyroidectomy
group c: will receive .9% saline
PLACEBO COMPARATOR.9% saline will be given for Postoperative Analgesia in Patients Undergoing Thyroidectomy
Interventions
group L : will receive 1.5 mg/kg bolus of iv lidocaine 10 minutes before anaesthesia induction then continuous iv infusion rate 1.5 mg / kg / h
