What to know about medications for pain
- Medications alone rarely provide enough help for chronic pain.
- Many medications come with considerable risk to your health.
- Pain science supports that medications are most useful when paired with other pain management tools.
- Opioid medications (such as Morphine, Oxycodone) are not a first-line therapy for chronic pain and may not be a part of your plan.
- Opioid medications require extra monitoring and protocols for your safety.
