IV Tylenol for Pain and Agitation After Throat Surgery in Young Children
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests whether giving acetaminophen (Tylenol) through an IV (a vein) instead of by mouth helps reduce pain and fussiness after tonsil and adenoid removal in children age 7 and under. The goal is to find better ways to keep children comfortable during recovery.

This study tests whether a numbing mist sprayed into the throat before surgery can reduce sore throat pain children feel after having their tonsils removed. It compares two numbing medicines to see if one works better than the other.
This study is testing two medications used during anesthesia (etomidate and esketamine) to see if they can reduce pain after tonsillectomy in children. If your child is having this surgery, the trial may offer better pain control during recovery.
This trial tests whether giving gabapentin before pediatric tonsil (and possibly adenoid) removal can reduce postoperative pain. It may help children feel more comfortable after surgery while still being safe to use in the right patients.
This study tests whether giving a high dose of paracetamol (the medicine in Tylenol) before surgery helps children feel less pain after a tonsillectomy. It aims to see if this simple approach can improve recovery.
This trial tests whether giving children both celecoxib (Celebrex) and acetaminophen (Tylenol) before surgery controls pain better than acetaminophen alone after tonsil removal. It aims to find a safer, more effective way to manage your child's pain after surgery.
This study tests different ways to manage pain after tonsillectomy in children. The goal is to find better pain relief options.
