Topic: The Role of Selective Inhibition of NaV 1.8 and Suzetrigine in Managing Acute Pain
Acute pain is a serious and potentially disabling condition often caused by surgery,
accident or injury. Over 80 million Americans are prescribed medicine to treat their
moderate-to-severe acute pain every year. Of these, about 40 million are prescribed an
opioid. Nearly 10% of acute pain patients treated initially with an opioid will go on to have
prolonged opioid use, and about 85,000 patients will develop opioid use disorder annually.
Poorly controlled acute pain can lead to reduced quality of life, development of chronic
pain, and increased burden on the health care system and society.
