This article outlines the essential role of premedication in anesthesia, as presented by Dr. M. Kannan, MD, DA, Professor and HOD of Anaesthesiology at Tirunelveli Medical College. Premedication is crucial for reducing patient anxiety, secretions, and postoperative complications, while enhancing the hypnotic effects of anesthetics. A comprehensive approach to premedication involves the use of anxiolytics, anticholinergic drugs, and antiemetics. It also offers guidelines on drug selection based on specific patient conditions and the importance of individualized care.
