Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT05555576Recruiting
Vitamin C to reduce opioid use after an ER visit
This trial tests whether taking vitamin C after an emergency room visit for a new, short-term muscle or joint pain can lower how many opioid pain pills you use. It may help by reducing opioid consumption while you recover.

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for placebo - control?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 3,902 recruiting placebo - control 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 placebo - control 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 placebo - control 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.
