Pain relief with suzetrigine after heart or weight-loss surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether suzetrigine, a new pain medication, can reduce the need for opioids (strong painkillers) after cardiac or bariatric surgery. The goal is to help patients manage pain with fewer opioid-related side effects.
