Summary
Hernia repair is one of the most common operations. Whilst there are few complications, pain
may last for several weeks and extend the period of convalescence. ALGRX 4975 is an
ultra-pure form of capsaicin, which is a pain medicine that has the potential for long-term
pain relief following a single administration. This study will determine whether ALGRX 4975
can provide pain relief following hernia repair.
