Measure
Control
Standard of care use of perioperative analgesia with acetaminophen and opioids that is supplemented with placebo solution. Participants will then be discharged after surgery with postoperative acetaminophen, opioids, and placebo. Placebo - Concentrate: Use of sugar-free Placebo peri- and post-operatively.
Intervention
Interventional use of perioperative analgesia with acetaminophen and opioids that is supplemented with gabapentin solution. Participants will then be discharged after surgery with postoperative acetaminophen, opioids, and gabapentin. Gabapentin: Use of Gabapentin peri- and post-operatively.
