Suzetrigine (Journavx) is a newly FDA-approved non-opioid pain medication for moderate-to-severe acute pain in adults. It works by blocking NaV1.8 sodium channels in the peripheral nervous system, reducing pain without addiction risk. Clinical trials show its efficacy is comparable to opioids, with fewer side effects like itching and muscle spasms.
