Summary

This study is being performed to evaluate the functionality of a device (Sufentanil NanoTab® PCA System) that has been developed for use by patients to self-administer the ARX-F01 pain medication (Sufentanil NanoTab 15 mcg) for the treatment of post-operative pain after undergoing knee replacement surgery.

Another goal of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of this non-invasive, sublingual route of administration of ARX-F01 in decreasing the amount of pain that a patient experiences following knee replacement surgery.
