Suzetrigine for Opioid-Free Recovery After Cesarean Delivery

Category Primary study
Registry of Trialsclinicaltrials.gov
Year 2026
The goal of this clinical trial is to determine whether suzetrigine increases the proportion of patients who remain completely opioid-free from completion of surgery through 72 hours after cesarean delivery. The main question it aims to answer is: Does adjunctive suzetrigine, when added to a standardized multimodal postoperative analgesic regimen, increase the proportion of patients who remain opioid-free during the first 72 hours after cesarean delivery? Researchers will compare suzetrigine to a placebo (a look-alike substance that contains no drug) to evaluate this outcome. Participants will: * Receive either suzetrigine or placebo after cesarean delivery * Receive standard postoperative pain management, including acetaminophen, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, and neuraxial morphine * Have opioid medications available as needed for breakthrough pain * Be followed during hospitalization and after discharge to assess pain, recovery, and medication use
