Could a sleep aid beat a nerve pain drug for surgery recovery?
NCT ID NCT07344467
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether melatonin (a natural sleep hormone) works as well as pregabalin (a nerve pain drug) for managing pain and anxiety after spine surgery. About 105 adults aged 21-60 having elective spine surgery will receive one of the two medicines right after surgery. Researchers will measure pain levels and anxiety scores over the first few days to see which option provides better relief with fewer side effects.
