Recruiting studies
- NCT06933498Recruiting
Nerve block for less pain meds in back surgery
This trial tests whether a nerve block (called an erector spinae plane block) given before surgery can reduce the amount of pain medicine and anesthesia needed during lumbar disc surgery. It may help people have less pain and fewer side effects.

Study looking for markers of pain and opioid response after injury or surgery
This study is looking for biological markers (like blood tests) that can predict how people will respond to pain and opioids after a traumatic injury or surgery. The goal is to help doctors tailor pain treatment to each person.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07221786Recruiting
Opioid reduction before spine surgery
This trial tests whether slowly reducing opioid pain medications before spine surgery can lead to a better recovery afterward. It is for adults already taking daily opioids who have major spine surgery planned at least a month away.
Philadephia, PennsylvaniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07553611Recruiting
Regional anesthesia and shoulder surgery recovery outcomes
This study compares different numbing techniques used during shoulder arthroscopy (a minimally invasive shoulder surgery) to see which one helps patients recover better, use less pain medication, and experience fewer complications like temporary paralysis of the breathing muscle under the rib cage.
Antalya, MuratpaşaAges 18–65 - NCT07639281Enrolling by invitation
Opioid Education for Ventral Hernia Repair Surgery
This study teaches patients about opioid pain medication before hernia repair surgery. It aims to help patients make informed decisions about pain management and understand safer opioid use.
Lexington, KentuckyAges 18–85 - NCT07361822Recruiting
Opioid use after surgery: standard vs smart pump
This trial compares two ways to give pain medicine through an IV pump after surgery. It tests if a smart pump that adjusts the dose based on feedback works better than a standard pump that delivers a steady, fixed dose. This might help patients use less opioid pain medicine.
BeijingAges 18–65 - NCT07750639Enrolling by invitationPhase 4
Reducing painkiller use after hand surgery
This study tests a new approach to prescribing fewer opioid pain pills after hand, wrist, or elbow surgery. It aims to help reduce the risk of opioid misuse while still controlling pain after surgery.
Orlando, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07004686Recruiting
Guided anesthesia to reduce opioid use in gallbladder surgery
This study tests a new way of guiding anesthesia during gallbladder removal surgery, with the goal of using less opioid pain medicine. It may help you have a smoother recovery with fewer side effects.
Shenzhen, GuangdongAges 18–64 - NCT07226700RecruitingPhase 3
Suzetrigine for pain after hip replacement surgery
This study tests an investigational pain medicine called suzetrigine to see how well it controls pain after total hip replacement surgery. It is for adults 18–80 who are having a first-time hip replacement and can receive spinal anesthesia.
New York, New YorkAges 18–80 - NCT07672015RecruitingPhase 4
Testing a new pain drug in surgery patients at risk for opioid dependence
This trial tests a new painkiller called suzetrigine for post-surgery pain. It's designed for people whose medical records suggest they may have a higher chance of needing strong painkillers (opioids) long after surgery. We want to see if suzetrigine works better at preventing that.
La Jolla, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07348627RecruitingPhase 3
Opioid-free hip replacement study
This trial tests if using fewer opioids after hip replacement surgery can still control pain well. It uses a specific type of hip replacement called anterior total hip arthroplasty and aims to help patients recover with less reliance on strong pain medicines.
Atlanta, GeorgiaAges 18 years+ - NCT06507293Recruiting
Pain relief methods comparison for lung surgery
This trial tests two numbing injections to see which reduces pain medicine use during lung surgery. A special pain monitor guides the treatment. It may help you need fewer opioids during your procedure.
KocaeliAges 18–65 - NCT06133933Enrolling by invitation
Shoulder replacement and pain medication study
This study looks at how your pain tolerance before a total shoulder replacement might relate to how much pain medication you need after surgery. The goal is to help doctors better manage pain medication after surgery.
Camden, New JerseyAges 18 years+ - NCT07427043RecruitingPhase 3
Opioid-free pain plan for robotic prostate surgery
This trial tests a pain management strategy that avoids opioids during and after robotic prostate surgery. It aims to reduce opioid use and side effects while keeping you comfortable.
Boston, MassachusettsAges 45 years+ - NCT07315308Recruiting
Nerve block before heart surgery and painkiller use
This study tests whether a numbing injection in the chest before heart surgery can reduce the amount of pain medicine needed during the operation. It may help you manage pain better and recover more comfortably.
Gaziantep, SahinbeyAges 18–65 - NCT07178262RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve block to reduce pain medicine after hysterectomy
This study tests whether a nerve block (an injection near the spine) can help reduce the amount of strong pain medicine you need after a hysterectomy. The goal is to see if it leads to fewer side effects and a smoother recovery.
Islamabad, FederalAges 16–80 - NCT07396753Recruiting
Nerve block to reduce opioid use after kidney donor surgery
This study tests a nerve block called Transversalis Fascia Plane Block to see if it lowers the amount of strong pain medicine (opioids) needed after a kidney donor surgery. It may help you have less pain and fewer side effects.
Istanbul, ZeytinburnuAges 18–80 - NCT06590714Recruiting
Polmacoxib for pain after rotator cuff surgery
This trial tests if Polmacoxib, an anti-inflammatory drug, can reduce the need for stronger painkillers after rotator cuff surgery. It may help manage pain with fewer side effects.
Uijeongbu-si, Gyeonggi-doAges 18 years+ - NCT07657949Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after breast reduction surgery
This trial tests a specific nerve block to see if it can reduce pain after breast reduction surgery, possibly helping with recovery and lowering the need for strong painkillers.
Sivas, SivasAges 18–65 - NCT06423716RecruitingPhase 4
Duloxetine to reduce opioid use after knee replacement
This study tests whether taking the pain medication duloxetine before and after knee replacement surgery can reduce the need for opioid painkillers. It may help patients manage pain with fewer side effects from strong narcotics.
Toronto, OntarioAges 50 years+ - NCT07513974Recruiting
Pain sensitivity test to predict opioid needs in heart surgery
This study measures how sensitive you are to pain using a special device, then tracks how much pain medication you need during heart surgery. The goal is to see if pain sensitivity can predict opioid requirements and help doctors customize pain control for you.
Brussels, AnderlechtAges Any age - NCT07370129Enrolling by invitation
Numbing injection for pain after tonsil surgery
This study tests a numbing injection near a nerve in your nose to see if it can reduce pain and help you recover faster after tonsillectomy. It is a non-drug approach that may offer an alternative to strong pain medicines.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 12 years+ - NCT07284615Recruiting
Nerve Block vs. Wound Injection for Hip Replacement Pain
This trial compares two pain-relief methods after hip replacement surgery: a nerve block (numbing the hip area) versus a numbing injection into the wound. The goal is to see which provides better pain control.

Comparing two types of penile nerve blocks for child circumcision
This study tests two ways of numbing the penis before circumcision in children. The goal is to see which method works better and causes less discomfort.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for opioid consumption?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 36 recruiting opioid consumption studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a opioid consumption trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a opioid consumption trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
