Brief Summary   A double-blind prospective randomised comparative study will be conducted on 60 patients scheduled for laparoscopic lower abdominal surgeries. Patients will be randomly allocated using computer generated random number to be treated with either dexamethasone (Group D) or preservative free midazolam (Group M). After completion of surgery ultrasound guided TAP block will be performed in patients of both the groups. Patients in Group D will receive 0.2% ropivacaine (20 ml) and 2ml normal saline containing 4mg dexamethasone whereas patients in Group M will receive 0.2% ropivacaine (20 ml) and 2ml normal saline containing 2 mg of preservative free midazolam. Patients will be shifted to post anaesthesia care unit (PACU) where post-op monitoring of pain (by VAS score), sedation (by Ramsay sedation scale), postoperative nausea and/or vomiting (0: no nausea; 1: nausea no vomiting; and 2: nausea and vomiting), and complications (like pruritus, headache, local anaesthetic systemic toxicity) will be done till 24h after surgery
