Summary
This study compares a new pain medicine called suzetrigine to the standard opioid oxycodone for pain after total knee replacement. About 140 adults with knee osteoarthritis will take either suzetrigine or oxycodone for two weeks after surgery. Researchers will measure pain levels and how much extra opioid pain medicine is needed, to see if suzetrigine can control pain with fewer opioids.
