Randomized, Controlled Cross-over Comparison of Oral Cannabidiol to Oral Opioid for Postoperative Photorefractive Keratectomy Pain Control
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to compare the safety and efficacy of low-THC oral cannabidiol (CBD) versus oral codeine-acetaminophen for managing postoperative pain after photorefractive keratectomy (PRK). The study found that CBD provided non-inferior pain control and similar recovery outcomes compared to codeine-acetaminophen, with only mild sensorium changes noted in patients taking CBD. This suggests that CBD may serve as a viable opioid-sparing alternative for pain management in refractive surgery.

"Oslr has become part of my weekly routine on my day off. The clinical relevance of the summaries is outstanding — I'd rate it 9/10. Being able to consume research hands-free is a huge advantage for busy physicians."
