Can we stop the opioid flood after surgery? new study tests pain relief without addiction risk

NCT ID NCT05548582

Summary

This study is testing whether a combination of non-opioid pain medications (like ibuprofen and acetaminophen) can control pain just as well as opioid pills after a common outpatient hysterectomy surgery. Researchers want to see if this approach reduces the number of opioid pills prescribed, which could help lower the risk of misuse and addiction. They are comparing pain levels, patient satisfaction, and side effects between the two approaches.
