Relief from fear on pain medications

 

A new DEA-signed consensus statement is designed to reassure physicians

that it's OK to prescribe needed painkillers.

 

Editorial. Nov. 19, 2001. Additional information

------

 

The OxyContin story has been one cast in extremes, the heaven-sent

treatment for patients in severe pain versus the deadly drug when

diverted to the street.

 

A balanced view has been needed about OxyContin (oxycodone

hydrochloride) and other pain medications. It has come in an

unprecedented consensus statement signed last month by the Drug

Enforcement Agency and 21 medical and patient advocacy groups, including

the AMA.
