      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Participants will be randomized using block randomization with fixed block sizes of four. The random allocation sequence will be generated by computer software, and within each block, patients will be randomly assigned to either Group A or Group B.
To prevent selection bias, allocation concealment will be ensured using the SNOSE method (Sequentially Numbered, Opaque, Sealed Envelopes). The random sequence will be placed inside opaque, sequentially numbered, sealed envelopes, which will be opened only after participant enrollment, Blinding description: To maintain blinding, both medications (metoclopramide and ondansetron) are clear, colorless injectable solutions and are indistinguishable in appearance, volume, and method of administration. The medications will be prepared by an independent person in identical unlabelled syringes and coded as A/B. Therefore, both participants and outcome assessors will remain unaware of the allocated intervention, ensuring effective blinding at both participant and assessor levels.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Ten milligrams of injectable metoclopramide (10 mg/2 mL ampoule, Sina Darou Pharmaceutical Co., Iran) diluted with normal saline to a final volume of 5 mL will be administered intravenously over 30–60 seconds, 5 minutes before spinal anesthesia. The final volume, timing, injection rate, and all anesthesia-related conditions will be identical in both groups. Intervention 2: Four milligrams of injectable ondansetron (4 mg/2 mL ampoule, Actoverco Pharmaceutical Co., Iran) diluted with normal saline to a final volume of 5 mL will be administered intravenously over 30–60 seconds, 5 minutes before spinal anesthesia. All injection conditions and anesthesia protocols will match those of the metoclopramide group.</i_freetext>
