Postoperative pain continues to be a significant clinical problem. Use of perioperative adjuvants has improved postoperative pain control. The GABA-B receptor agonist, baclofen, is an appropriate drug to trial as such an analgesic adjuvant. Therefore, the investigators will conduct a study designed to determine whether or not a single, oral dose of baclofen given to patients undergoing kidney stone surgery will reduce postoperative opioid requirements measured in the first 24 hours following surgery.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether a single, oral dose of baclofen alters postoperative opioid requirements.
