Summary

This study looked at ways to manage pain after elective lower back surgery without relying on opioids. The goal was to see if using a combination of non-opioid pain medicines could reduce pain and avoid side effects like nausea or breathing problems. 75 adults having lumbar disc surgery took part, and researchers measured how many had at least a 50% drop in pain after the operation.
