Summary
This study compares a new pain medicine, suzetrigine, to acetaminophen (Tylenol) for reducing pain when numbing medicine is injected and a head frame is placed. About 80 adults scheduled for a procedure with a stereotactic head frame will take part. The goal is to see if suzetrigine makes these painful steps more comfortable.
