Introduction to Safe Prescribing of Opioids for Pain Management

Introduction to Safe Prescribing of Opioids for Pain Management

There is increasing evidence that opioid medications are over-prescribed and poorly managed because physicians are not aware of appropriate opioid risk management strategies and non-opioid approaches to treating chronic pain. This activity seeks to familiarize physicians with current guidelines for opioid use and prescribing, as well as educate physicians about non-opioid strategies for pain management.
