Eligibility criteria:
Inclusion Criteria:

35--75 years of age at the Screening Visit.
Female subjects only.
Scheduled to undergo minimally invasive (robotic-assisted or laparoscopic) supracervical hysterectomy, under general anesthesia.

Exclusion Criteria:

Use of any of the following medications within the times specified before surgery: a. opioid, SSRI, tricyclic antidepressant, gabapentin, pregabalin within three days of surgery. b. Use of acetaminophen within 24 hours of surgery.
Concurrent painful physical condition or concurrent surgery that may require analgesic treatment (such as NSAID, opioid, SSRI, tricyclic antidepressant, gabapentin, pregabalin) in the postoperative period for pain that is not strictly related to the minimally invasive supracervical hysterectomy procedure and may confound the postoperative assessments (e.g., rheumatoid arthritis, chronic neuropathic pain.
Chronic user of analgesic medications, including taking opioid medications for more than 14 days in the last 3 months, or non-opioid pain medications more than 5 times per week.
Current use of systemic glucocorticosteroids (e.g. Decadron) or use of glucocorticoids within one month of enrollment into this study.

12. Uncontrolled anxiety, schizophrenia, or other psychiatric disorder that, in the opinion of the Investigator, may interfere with study assessments or compliance. 13. Significant medical conditions or laboratory results that, in the opinion of the Investigator indicate an increased vulnerability to study drug and procedures, and expose subjects to an unreasonable risk as a result of participating in this clinical trial. 14. Any clinically significant event or condition uncovered during the surgery (e.g., excessive bleeding, acute sepsis) that might render the subject medically unstable or complicate the subject's postoperative course. 15. An incision length greater than 3 cm.
