For perioperative pain control in patients undergoing spine surgery, gabapentin 900 mg/day had the lowest VAS and opioid consumption compared vs placebo, with similar adverse events across treatments. ja.ma/3DQ1YfM

A dose of 900 mg per day of gabapentin prior to spine surgery was associated with the lowest pain score among all studied dosages. pharmacytimes.com/view/periopera… #gabapentin #JAMA #spine #surgery #orthopedics
