This trial tests if taking two pain relievers (tramadol and oxycodone) together works better than oxycodone alone to control pain after knee or hip replacement surgery. It aims to find a more effective way to manage pain with fewer side effects.

This trial tests if adding methadone during knee replacement surgery can better control pain after the operation and reduce the need for opioid painkillers. It may help you recover with less discomfort and fewer side effects from strong pain medicines.
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.
This study compares two ways to manage pain after thumb joint removal surgery: one using over-the-counter pain relievers (ibuprofen and acetaminophen) and the other using a prescription opioid (oxycodone). The goal is to see if the non-opioid option works just as well with fewer side effects.
This study compares a new pain medicine called suzetrigine with a commonly used opioid, oxycodone, for pain after a knee replacement. The goal is to see which works better and has fewer side effects.
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.
This study tests whether a new pain medication called TRD205 works well and is safe for people recovering from hip replacement surgery. If it works, it could offer better pain control after your operation.
