Webinar 1: Prescriber Considerations when Treating Chronic Pain

Presenter: Dr. Roger Chou, Professor, Departments of Medicine and Medical Informatics & Clinical Epidemiology, Oregon Health & Science University School of Medicine

Chronic pain is common and can be a challenge to treat. Although opioids are widely and increasingly used for management of chronic pain, growing evidence indicates serious harms and limited benefits. How can clinicians more safely and effectively use opioid and non-opioid therapies for management of chronic pain? This webinar draws on the most recent evidence and development in clinical policy and practice guidelines in the area of chronic pain.

This webinar series is supported by the American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry under its prime grant from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.
