Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

Prior to Surgery:

* Body mass index (BMI) of 18.0 to 38.0 kg/m2, inclusive
* Be scheduled to undergo a primary unilateral first metatarsal bunionectomy repair, without collateral procedures, under regional anesthesia (Mayo and popliteal sciatic block) not to include base wedge procedure

After Surgery:

* Subject reported pain of ≥4 on the NPRS, and moderate or severe pain on the Verbal Categorical Rating Scale (VRS) within 9 hours after removal of the popliteal sciatic block on Day 1
* Subject is lucid and able to follow commands
* All analgesic guidelines were followed during and after the bunionectomy

Exclusion Criteria

Prior to Surgery:

* History in the past 10 years of malignancy, except for squamous cell skin cancer, basal cell skin cancer, and Stage 0 cervical carcinoma in situ
* History of cardiac dysrhythmias requiring anti-arrhythmia treatment(s)
* History of abnormal laboratory results ≥2.5 × upper limit of normal (ULN)
* History of peripheral neuropathy
* A known or clinically suspected infection with human immunodeficiency virus or hepatitis B or C viruses
* Prior medical history of bunionectomy or other foot surgery
* Intolerant of or unwilling to receive hydrocodone, acetaminophen, or ibuprofen
* For female subjects: Pregnant, nursing, or planning to become pregnant during the study or within 90 days after the last study drug dose
* For male subjects: Male subjects with a female partner who is pregnant, nursing, or planning to become pregnant during the study or within 90 days after the last study drug dose

After Surgery:

* Subject had a type 3 deformity requiring a base wedge osteotomy or concomitant surgery such as hammertoe repair; or experienced medical complications during the bunionectomy that, in the opinion of the investigator, should preclude randomization
