Non-narcotic pain medicine after labral shoulder surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This trial studies whether a non-narcotic pain plan after labral (shoulder) surgery can control pain as well as or better than usual treatment. It may help patients avoid opioid (narcotic) pain medicines after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Be an adult (age 18 or older) having labral surgery, either first-time or revision
- Not be allergic or intolerant to the specific study medicines (including Celebrex, Tylenol, Neurontin, dexamethasone, or tramadol)
- Not be currently pregnant
- No significant recent drug or alcohol misuse and no narcotics in the 6 months before surgery
- No serious kidney problems, stomach or peptic ulcer disease, or past GI bleeding
- Your rotator cuff should not be intact

This study tests whether ketorolac, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), helps manage pain after hip surgery. It may offer an opioid-sparing option for patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).
This study tests which pain-medication plan works best and has the fewest side effects after certain low-risk surgeries. You may be assigned to receive opioid-based, NSAID-based, or acetaminophen-based pain control depending on your situation.
This study compares opioid pain medicine with non-opioid pain medicine after arthroscopic (keyhole) knee surgery. It aims to see which approach controls pain well while keeping side effects and risks lower.
This study looks at how much pain medicine (opioids) people actually need after hip arthroscopy and what factors may affect it. It may help improve safer, more personalized pain control after surgery.
This trial tests a mix of pain medicines (multimodal regimen) to see if it reduces the need for strong narcotics after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. If you have a torn rotator cuff that hasn't healed with other treatments and you are scheduled for surgery, you may be able to join.
This trial is testing whether the pain reliever celecoxib (Celebrex) can help control pain after a specific type of salivary gland surgery called superficial parotidectomy. If you're having this surgery, you may be able to join and take celecoxib for pain rather than other common pain medicines.
