Description of intervention(s) / exposure
In this study we will compare the effectiveness of these drugs in alleviating postoperative sore throat using different approaches: spraying into the oral cavity, gargling or perioperative administration of lozenges.- Strefen group(STR): Flurbiprofen 8.75 mg. Sucrose, Glucose Syrup, Honey, Macrogol 300, Lemon Flavour, Potassium Hydroxide, Levomenthol. Reckitt Benckiser Healthcare, UK; strefen lozenge will be sucked by the patient 45 minutes before induction of anesthesia.

- Siccoral group(SCR): 10 mg sea salt % 1, glyserol, patent blue, methyl paraben, prophyl paraben, purified water. Drossapharm,Basel, Switzerland; siccoral will be sprayed into the oropharyngeal cavity 4 puffs, 1minute before induction of anesthesia.

-Stomatovis group(STM): Purified water, xylitol, marshmallow mucilage, vegetable glycerol, dipotassium glycyrrhizinate, phosphoglucan, carboximethyl beta-glucan, sodium bicarbonate, chlorobutanol, PVM/MA, sodium hydroxymethyl glycinate, PEG-40 hydrogenated castor oil , acesulfame K, flavouring, green color (E102, E131, E514).

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 289301 0
The aim of this study is to compare the effectiveness of these drugs in alleviating POST(postoperative sore throat) using different approaches: spraying into the oral cavity, gargling or perioperative administration of lozenges. The scale is asked to the patient. The severity of postoperative sore throat (POST) was graded on a four point scale.
as follows: 0, no sore throat;1, mild sore throat(complains of sore throat only on asking);2, moderate sore throat(complains of sore throat on his own);3, severe sore throat(change of voice associated with throat pain.
Timepoint [1] 289301 0
Postoperative sore throat were evaluated by the anesthetist in charge of the post-anesthesia care unit, blinded to the group allocations within 20 minutes in the recovery room(0 hour)and 1,6,24 hour after surgery
