Allergy medicine tested as painkiller for stitches

NCT ID NCT06910241

Summary

This study is testing whether a common allergy medicine (diphenhydramine) works as well as the standard numbing medicine (lidocaine) for reducing pain when doctors stitch up simple cuts in the emergency room. It will enroll 100 patients with simple cuts. Researchers will compare how much pain patients feel from the injection and the stitching procedure using each medicine.
