Summary

This prospective, randomized, double-blinded study is designed to compare opioid-sparing effect of preemptive and preventive intravenous acetaminophen/ibuprofen fixed-dose combination in patients undergoing robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). We hypothesize that preemptive administration of intravenous acetaminophen/ibuprofen fixed-dose combination can significantly reduce postoperative opioid consumption and pain severity than preventive administration in patients undergoing RARP.
