Summary

This study looks at whether adding flurbiprofen axetil to a standard scalp numbing medicine can better control pain after brain surgery. About 216 adults having brain surgery will receive either the numbing medicine alone or with flurbiprofen. The goal is to see if the combination reduces the need for extra painkillers in the first two days after surgery.
