Summary
The purpose of this study is to determine how effect lacosamide is in reducing the amount of
pain medication needed following a total hip arthroplasty. The study team hypothesizes that a
single dose of lacosamide will reduce the amount of pain medication required after surgery.
The study team plans to evaluate the amount of pain medication needed and quality of pain
control during a subject's hospital stay and at their three month follow-up visit following
their surgery.
