“…Even studies undertaken in patients undergoing operations where bone healing or fusion is a desired outcome of surgery do not show a detrimental effect of NSAIDs on this surgical outcome. After osteotomy of a long bone, there was no difference in the time to union between patients treated with an NSAID pain protocol or an NSAID-free pain protocol [ 24 ]. After spinal fusion, a systematic review could not identify any RCT and concluded from the studies of lower quality, that postoperative NSAID short-term use (for less than 2 weeks) does not increase the risk of non-union [ 25 ].…”

“…A retrospective cohort study by Fragomen et al reviewed 155 limbs that underwent osteotomy and internal fixation with a pain regimen that either included nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) or did not 62 . The group that received NSAIDs had no difference in time to union but had fewer milligram equivalents of morphine prescribed.…”

“…NSAIDs can be used as an additive therapy or even an alternative analgesic treatment. Following major surgery, NSAIDs can negate the need for opioids (10) and shorten the required hospital stay (11). Nonetheless, NSAIDs are likely to cause impaired fracture consolidation and are avoided after bone surgery, despite their benefits (12,13).…”
