Interventions

  • Suzetrigine — DRUG
    Suzetrigine is a new pain medication that works by inhibiting sodium channels (NAV 1.8) on pain nerves in the peripheral nervous system. By inhibiting this sodium channel on peripheral nerves it blocks pain signals from reaching the spinal cord and brain, decreasing pain.
  • Placebo — DRUG
    Matching placebo

Study Details

This is a prospective, randomized study. The purpose of this study is to evaluate if the addition of Suzetrigine, a new pain medication, to well established peri-operative pain regimen used for total knee replacement surgery will effect pain control. 1. Does Suzetrigine given pre-operatively decrease the total opioid consumed after total knee replacement surgery? 2. Dose Suzetrigine given pre-operatively decrease the visual analog pain scale pain scores after total knee replacement surgery? Study participants will be randomly assigned to receive either Suzetrigine medication or placebo medication.
