Anything, ANYTHING But Opioids
From Gomerpedia
"Anything, ANYTHING but opioids" is the powerfully succinct but official recommendation from the American College of Physicians regarding the management of acute, subacute, and chronic back pain.[1][2] It coincides with new guidelines on the restricted use of opioids from both the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Three Wise Monkeys.[3][4]
