Why non-opioid is so important to us:
The national opioid crisis has highlighted a critical need for better options. Even though the health system has been implementing more safe-guards, exposing patients to opioids remains a risk. For many patients, undergoing total knee replacement surgery is the first time they are prescribed heavy doses of opioids. With our research into a new therapy, we believe that we can:
- Reduce or eliminate opioid usage and the associated addiction risk
- Minimize side effects and sedation
- Speeding up recovery and patient experience
Accelerating therapies and real-world patient impact
By leveraging regulatory agility and clinical collaboration with orthopedic surgeons, we can use the compounding pharmacy pathway to offer surgeons and patients interested in early access to our non-opioid pain management treatment.
