Patients that are to undergo isolated meniscectomy will be randomized to 2 cohorts: one will take the FDA recommended dose of acetominophen (1000mg) 24hrs before surgery, one will be given a similarly looking placebo pill. A multitude of post-op variables will be included, mainly pain scores and morphine equivalent doses at different time points.
