Study Details

Brief summary:

The primary aim of this study is to evaluate whether celecoxib (CELEBREX) is equivalent to acetaminophen-codeine-caffeine (TYLENOL# 3) for the management of pain after primary elective open septorhinoplasty with osteotomies.

Secondary objectives include comparison of adverse medication effects and complications (e.g., bleeding events and bruising) that occur postoperatively.

Half of the study participants will receive celecoxib, and half will receive acetaminophen-codeine-caffeine.

We hypothesize that both interventions will exhibit no difference in pain control or postoperative bleeding, but that participants taking CELEBREX will experience less medication-related side effects and less bruising postoperatively.

Inclusion Criteria:

  • • Patients 18-80 years old undergoing elective primary open septorhinoplasty with osteotomies by single surgeon, JA.

  • Patients with a known history of chronic pain disorder, or who have gastrointestinal bleeds, peptic ulcer disease or who have other comorbidities that may prevent them from taking NSAIDs such as CELEBREX.
  • Patients with a history of radiation, active head and neck malignancy or other chronic pain disorders such as various rheumatologic diseases will be excluded to decrease confounding factors in assessing pain.
