CME/CE Information and Claim Credit:
Overview: Tapering opioids is frequently necessary in clinical practice, either to reduce harm or because of lack of significant benefit. The most important aspect of opioid tapering is discussing the reasons for it with the patient. Opioid tapering should be a measure of safety—and in no way punitive. Complete this activity to learn appropriate and inappropriate reasons for tapering opioid therapy and strategies to counsel patients and manage withdrawal and psychological issues.
This activity is supported by an independent educational grant from the Opioid Analgesic REMS Program Companies.
