Pain Management Update: Meet Suzetrigine (Journavx) | TRC Healthcare Clinical Capsules Podcast

Описание: In this episode, TRC Healthcare editor, Vickie Danaher, PharmD, digs into Suzetrigine - brand name Journavx - the first non-opioid analgesic approved in over two decades.

You’ll hear how it works, how it compares to hydrocodone/acetaminophen, and why it might be a game-changer for patients at risk of opioid misuse. We’ll also unpack limitations in the clinical trials, cost concerns, dosing nuances, and key drug interactions to watch for. Plus, we’ll share tips for counseling patients and navigating formulary decisions, especially if your site participates in the manufacturer’s pilot program.
