          Abstract

          Postoperative pain is the most common morbidity associated with tonsillectomy. Opioids are frequently used in multimodal posttonsillectomy analgesia regimens; however, concerns regarding respiratory depression, drug-drug interactions, and medication misuse necessitate responsible opioid stewardship among prescribing surgeons. It is unclear if intentionally reducing opioid prescription doses negatively affects the patient experience.
