Timing is everything: study tests best moment to give pain meds to cut opioid use after surgery
NCT ID NCT05685342
Summary
This study tested whether giving a combination painkiller (acetaminophen/ibuprofen) right after anesthesia starts is better at reducing opioid painkiller use after surgery than giving it later when the surgeon starts closing. It involved 154 men having robotic prostate removal surgery. The goal was to see which timing leads to less strong opioid medication needed and better pain control after the operation.
