Summary

This study looks at whether prescribing fewer opioid painkillers after laparoscopic hysterectomy still keeps patients comfortable. About 120 adults having the surgery for non-cancer reasons will be randomly assigned to get a smaller or standard opioid prescription. The goal is to reduce the risk of opioid misuse while maintaining good pain control.
