Non-opioid pain relief after breast surgery
Part of Pain, Skin clinical trials.
This trial tests whether non-opioid pain medicines can effectively control pain after mastectomy or lumpectomy, allowing you to go home the same day without needing strong opioids.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are having a mastectomy (removing all breast tissue) or a lumpectomy (removing a breast lump) for cancer or a precancerous condition.
- You are expected to go home the same day as your surgery.
- You are not having immediate breast reconstruction (like an implant or flap procedure).
- You are not allergic to the study drugs and do not have conditions like heart failure, stomach ulcers, bleeding problems, liver or kidney issues.
- You are not taking opioid pain medicine before surgery.
- You do not have a condition that prevents you from answering questions about your pain.

This trial tests a nerve block to reduce pain after breast removal surgery with immediate reconstruction. It may help you recover with less discomfort.
This study tests whether adding tramadol to a standard numbing medicine (ropivacaine) makes pain control better after breast cancer surgery. If you're having a mastectomy, this could help reduce pain and improve recovery.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after mastectomy: one uses a single nerve block (RIB), and the other combines that nerve block with another type of nerve block (DPIPB). The goal is to see which approach gives better pain relief after surgery.
This study tests whether dexamethasone (a common anti-inflammatory medication) can reduce pain after mastectomy (surgical removal of breast tissue). Researchers want to see if it helps patients recover with less pain and potentially fewer pain medications.
This study tests whether a pain-control approach without opioids (strong pain medicines) can lower persistent pain after mastectomy. It may help people avoid long-term pain and opioid side effects.
This study tests whether breast cancer surgery can be done safely without using opioid pain medicines during anesthesia. The goal is to see if avoiding opioids leads to fewer side effects and a smoother recovery.
