Summary

This study looked at whether giving a painkiller called tapentadol before breast cancer surgery could lower the amount of morphine needed during and right after the operation. 70 patients took part, and researchers measured how much morphine they used. The goal was to see if pre-surgery tapentadol helps control pain better and reduces reliance on stronger painkillers.
