(NAPS) – According to the
Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention, health care
professionals could save more
than 130 lives lost to the
opioid epidemic each day.
How? With a deeper under-
standing of pain, pain med-
ication and addiction, espe-
cially related to opioids.
Communities rural and
urban are witnessing a grow-
ing and deadly phenomenon,
while health care providers
feel caught between prescrib-
ing guidelines and patients'
needs.
To address this issue, doc-
tors, nurses, dentists, physi-
cian assistants, pharmacists
and other clinicians can take
courses from CME Outfitters
and USF Health, supported by
an educational grant from
Johnson & Johnson, that pro-
vide strategies for how and
when to prescribe opioids,
better understand the biolog-
ic underpinnings of pain and
addiction, and look at target-
ed, effective and safe treat-
ment alternatives.
Fighting the opioid epi-
demic in our communities
goes beyond educating the
health care professionals who
prescribe opioids to educating
patients as well. If you are
prescribed an opioid:
■ Make sure you under-
stand your treatment and
what to expect
■ Learn how to safely dis-
pose of unused medication
■ Understand how to help
loved ones struggling with
addiction
■ Know what lifesaving
measures you can take in case
of an overdose.
