Official title
Nonopioid Versus Opioid Management of Post-operative Pain Following Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery: A Randomized Controlled Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
Journavx (suzetrigine) is a novel non-opioid analgesic that is FDA approved for acute pain management and may offer a promising alternative for managing postoperative pain. Suzetrigine is selective inhibitor of the sodium channel NaV1.8, for managing acute pain. NaV1.8, a sodium channel, plays a key role in transmitting pain signals. Importantly, this channel is minimally expressed in the brain, enabling effective pain control without the potential central nervous system side effects of respiratory depression and addiction associated with opioids. Clinical trials have shown Journavx to be effective in managing moderate to severe post-operative pain equal to that of opiates. This study aims to further evaluate the efficacy and safety of Journavx in managing post-operative pain after third molar removal and orthognathic surgery. Participants in this study should be aged 18-45 without significant autoimmune diseases, chronic kidney disease, liver disease, chronic pain disorder including temporomandibular joint disorder, bleeding disorders, pregnant or nursing, undergoing either extraction of both lower third molars or orthognathic surgery of both the maxilla and mandible.
