Nalbuphine is known as a potent analgesic.It is a synthetic partial kappa agonist and mu antagonist opoid of the phenanthrene series.It has less side

effects like nausea,vomiting and respiratory depression.The onset of action of nalbuphine is 5–10 minutes and duration of action is 3–6 hours. It has

minimal side effects with the dosage of 0.2–0.4 mg/kg. Accordingly, we compiled this study using nalbuphine as a supplement to balanced

anesthesia and postoperative analgesia in off pump coronary artery bypass (OPCAB) patients.Nalbuphine was used as an adjuvant during

induction and maintenance of anesthesia and evaluation of hemodynamics and postoperative analgesia was done.
