Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion

  • Presenting to the ED for an abscess requiring incision and drainage
  • ED attending physician's judgment that the patient has capacity to provide informed consent.
  • Patients must be able to understand English or Spanish.

Exclusion

  • Use of opioids or tramadol within past 7 days.
  • Prior adverse reaction or allergy to opioids.
  • Patients who are pregnant
  • Patients weight \> 100kg
  • Chronic pain syndrome: frequently recurrent or daily pain for at least 3 months results in modulation of pain perception which is thought to be due to down-regulation of pain receptors. Examples of chronic pain syndromes include sickle cell anemia, osteoarthritis, fibromyalgia, and peripheral neuropathies.
  • Medical condition that might affect metabolism or opioid analgesics such as cirrhosis (Child Pugh A or worse) or kidney impairment (CKD 3 or worse)
  • Chronic malnutrition, severe hypovolemia (dehydration of blood loss) or hepatic disease
  • Alcohol intoxication: history of alcoholism or the presence of alcohol intoxication as judged by the treating physician may alter pain perception and has previously increased adverse events.
  • SBP \<100 mmHg: Opioids can produce peripheral vasodilation causing orthostasis.
  • HR \< 60/min: Opioids can cause bradycardia.
  • Oxygen saturation \< 95% on room air: For this study, oxygen saturation must be 95% or above on room air in order to be enrolled.
  • Use of MAO inhibitors in past 30 days: MAO inhibitors have been reported to intensify the effects of at least one opioid drug causing anxiety, confusion and significant respiratory depression or coma.
  • Patients using transdermal pain patches or oral opioid use \> 10 days in the prior month: frequent opioid use may influence both the amount of pain patients report as well as the level of relief they obtain from other treatments.
  • Patients with a history of traumatic brain injury, seizures or hallucinations
  • Patients with anatomical anomalies or medical conditions precluding intranasal administration
