Summary

This study tests whether a new pain medication called Suzetrigine can help people who have knee replacement surgery feel less pain and need fewer opioids. About 235 adults will be randomly assigned to get either the new drug or a placebo before surgery. The main goal is to see if it lowers the total amount of strong painkillers needed afterward.
