Common blood pressure pill may stop knee surgery scarring

NCT ID NCT07135687

Summary

This study is testing if losartan, a common blood pressure medication, can prevent the formation of painful scar tissue in the knee after ACL reconstruction surgery. Researchers will give the drug to 144 adults having their first ACL surgery to see if it improves their knee's range of motion over 12 months. The goal is to use an existing, approved medication in a new way to prevent a common surgical complication.
