This is the @nejm.org study that examined non-opioid analgesic, VX-548 (suzetrigine/Journavx), in acute postoperative pain (bunionectomy & paniculectomy). 100 mg load, then 50 mg for maintenance was comparable to 5- mg of hydrocodone. Low dose no better than placebo.

I reviewed a medical manuscript that clearly was written using AI. It was awful and nonsensical to the point of being unreadable - which was basically my review.

Falling a bit behind here, so if I haven’t followed you back yet, don’t fret.

Working on a textbook chapter on opioid law and policy, but I will try to keep up here, too.

Hey #HPM and #HaPC friends,

It’s looking like @aahpm.bsky.social is also making the transition to β€œThe Good Place.” Let’s get them messaging more on the True Blue app.
