Cough sedation score (A), VAS pain score (B) and nausea score (C) in the control group (orange), Dex group (green), and Nal group (purple). There was no statistical significance in the score of cough severity in three groups; VAS pain scores at Nal group were lower than control and Dex group (P = 0.001 and P = 0.016 respectively), Dex than control group (P = 0.325); Nausea scores at Nal group were significantly lower than control and Dex group (P = 0.000 and P = 0.009 respectively), no statistical difference between Dex and control group (P = 0.261). The box and dot plots were median (IQR) and outliers (defined as beyond 1.5 times IQR) with the violin plot indicating the density distribution of data
