Tramadol with dexamethasone for knee pain after arthroscopy
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Pain clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding dexamethasone to tramadol injected into the knee during surgery provides better pain relief after minor knee arthroscopy. You may qualify if you are having a simple knee procedure like a partial meniscectomy.
