Revision THA patients who use opioids preoperatively have notably lower preoperative and postoperative outcome scores compared with propensity score-matched nonusers. As opioid use has the potential to be a modifiable factor, it would be important to counsel patients on the benefit of minimizing or eliminating opioid use preoperatively to optimize outcome after revision THA.
