lead to less opiate use in the first week post-operative (after surgery) in sinus/septum
surgery patients. Participants will be randomized like a flip of a coin to either the
standard of care pain treatment of acetaminophen 325 mg as needed for pain plus opiates
(acetaminophen/hydrocodone) as needed for breakthrough pain; OR to the study arm of
acetaminophen 650 mg every 6 hours plus opiates (Oxycodone)as needed for breakthrough pain.
