Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to compare different medication combinations used in a periarticular injection after total knee replacement surgery(TKR). A periarticular injection is an injection that is given into the tissues surrounding the knee joint. The injection is given while the patient is still in surgery.

The study will compare the level of pain management, length of hospital stay, range of motion and side effects from subjects receiving one of four different combinations of medication in a periarticular injection. The medications used in the injections are approved medications routinely used for pain management.

Approximately 160 subjects will participate in this study. The surgeon, study personnel, and patients will be blinded to the combination of medications each patient receives. The pharmacist will prepare the 4 different combinations of medications, randomize each patient to the particular combination of medications, and maintain the study drug documentation.
Detailed Description: Data Collection:

Data will be collected from the patient's pre-operative office visit, up to six weeks post-operatively.

Intra-operative Collection:

* Duration of surgery
* Tourniquet time
* Time of periarticular injection

Post-operative Collection:

* Pain Scores in the inpatient post-anesthesia care unit (PACU) using the 1- to 10- point Visual Analog Scale (VAS) an admission to unit, 1 hour, 2 hour, and on discharge.
* VAS pain scores every 8 hours on the Orthopaedic floor
* Use of supplementary narcotics
* Use of anti-emetics
* Serious Adverse Events (SAE) including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) formation, pulmonary embolism (PE), myocardial infarct or other serious cardiac event, excessive bleeding
