2 Chronic pain brief review Opiates important things to know Factors in determining whether to use an opiate What to watch for if you decide to prescribe What to do if your patient fails to comply

3 Pain is the most common reason for physician consultation in the United States. It is a major symptom in many medical conditions, and can significantly interfere with a person's quality of life and general functioning.

4 sometimes pain persists despite removal of the stimulus and apparent healing of the body; and sometimes pain arises in the absence of any detectable stimulus, damage or disease.

5 3 months 6 months Pain that extends beyond the expected period of healing

6 Fear of injury Isolation Loss of work, $ and love, selfesteem Anxiety Depletion

7 Somatic or nociceptive: arthritis fracture post surgical acute musculoskeletal injuries

8 Central neuropathic: stroke fibromyalgia chronic pain with a strong psychological component

9 Peripheral neuropathic: compression neuropathy radiculopathy polyneuropathy postherpetic neuralgia phantom limb pain post amputation

12 May be more effective than other alternatives Low toxicity to gut, kidneys Intolerances to other drugs

13 Abuse potential Health risk, including death Risk of diversion Controversy regarding long term efficacy Irritating issues with patients who misuse opiates

14 5% of Americans over age 12 use prescription pain relievers for nonmedical purposes 70% obtain the medication from a friend or relative

15 Jefferson School of Population Health ,586 patients: 75% unlikely to be taking medications as prescribed 38% no detectable level of the drug prescribed 29% had a non-prescribed drug 27% had a level higher than expected 15% had a level lower than expected

16 Clinicians who prescribe opioids to treat chronic pain are often caught between their professional obligation to relieve suffering and their desire to avoid contributing to the non-medical consumption of controlled substances

17 Dependence Abstinence syndrome Tolerance Down regulation of opiate receptors Abuse Craving or Compulsion. Continued use despite adverse consequences Loss of Control

18 Behaviors that mimic addiction. May present in a patient with or without a history of or risk factors for drug abuse or true addiction. Often occurs in the setting of acute pain that is overlaid on a chronic pain condition. Climate of distrust and conflict between the patient and the care team related to the use of opioids for pain.

19 Pseudoaddiction

20 Neuropathic pain Significant comorbid psychopathology Long prior use of opiates (tolerance to opiates) Smoker Family history of chemical abuse

21 Function and quality of life will improve with a trial of increased opiates. Careful observation and knowledge of patient required

22 Nociceptive pain such as arthritis Psychologically stable Older patient No prior history of chemical abuse Non-smoker Negative family history of chemical abuse

23 Cognitive Hypotestosteronism in males and females Central sleep apnea Opioid-induced hyperalgesia

24 Sedation/impaired cognitive function Frequently in combination with other sedatives Patient usually unaware Family may be aware but may not see the connection or may not say anything Improves with reduction in dosage

25 Hypotestosteronism in males and females May be due to pituitary depletion from chronic pain Opioid suppression of GnRH in the hypothalamus Direct suppresion of testosterone production in the adrenal or gonads

26 Symptoms of low testosterone Lack of energy Loss of libido Depression Poor healing Diminished Opioid effects Apathy, weakness Suspect in any patient taking long term opiates Dose-related

27 Hypotestosteronism in males and females Reduces opioid receptor binding Treatable

28 Central sleep apnea Suppression of central breathing mechanism Fatigue, insomnia Reduced cognitive function Health risks of sleep apnea

29 Opioid-induced hyperalgesia Opioid neurotoxicity Enhanced sensitivity to painful stimuli Opioids may worsen initial pain & sensitivity to other sources of pain Often improves with opiate reduction

30 1. Evaluation of patient s expectations Document baseline function: Driving Cooking/cleaning Working Sleeping What does the patient want to be able to do? Are Goals realistic?

31 2. Is the pain likely to respond to low dose opiates? Somatic Neuropathic 3. Has there been a reasonable trial with non-opiate medications?

32 Nociceptive pain NSAIDs Tylenol Tramadol

33 Neuropathic pain Anticonvulsants Gabapentin (Neurontin) Pregabalin (Lyrica) Tiagabine (Gabitril) SNRI Venlafaxine (Effexor) Duloxetine (Cymbalta Milnacipran (Savella) Desvenlafaxine (Pristiq)

34 Neuropathic pain Muscle relaxers Lioresal (Baclofen) Deafferentation pain such as neuropathy or phantom limb pain Tizanidine (Zanaflex) Good for insomnia relating to neuropathic pain Tramadol Acts centrally at the opiate receptor and has potential for abuse, although less than other opiates May be effective for neuropathic pain

35 Neuropathic pain Tapendadol (Nucynta) Centrally acting analgesic u receptor agonist Norepinephrine uptake inhibitor Similar to hydrocodone in it s ability to relieve pain Electrical Stimulation

36 4. What other factors affect the pain and is there a way to address them? Deconditioning Behavioral reinforcers Depression and anxiety Smoking Testosterone Sleep disorders

37 physical therapy exercise injections surgery

38 5. Can you trust your patient? Your experience with patient Board of Pharmacy - Drug screens Other illegal activity : epository/start.do

39 ***OPIATE RISK TOOL*** FAMILY HISTORY: - alcohol abuse M3/F1 - illegal drug use M3/F1 - prescription drug abuse M4/F4

40 PERSONAL HISTORY: - alcohol abuse M3/F3 - illegal drug use M4/F4 - presciption drug abuse M5/F5

41 MENTAL HEALTH: - Dx of ADD, OCD, bipolar, schizophrenia M2/F2 - Dx of depression M1/F1

42 OTHER - age M1F1 - history of preadolescent sexual abuse M0/F3 TOTAL: SCORING: 0-3 low risk 4-7 moderate risk 8 or greater high risk

43 6. What are the medical risks to your patient if opiates are used? Drug interactions (other sedating medications) CNS dysfunction Sleep disturbance Liver disease Hypotestosteronism Risk of abuse and diversion

44 Set up clear expectations chronic pain agreement Continue to utilize non-opiates, lifestyle change, and other reasonable interventions to every extent possible Watch for drug interactions Evaluate whether the opiate is achieving the initial goals Monitor for compliance Monitor for side effects and interactions

45 Treat concurrent mental health disorders Be sensitive to medication costs Check for low testosterone and sleep apnea, especially if taking high doses Educate, educate, educate why you don t want to ask me to increase your dose today

46 Face to face conversation explaining why you aren t comfortable prescribing Refer rather than abandoning - consider referral for addiction evaluation Consider pain specialist

47 The challenge is to curtail the abuse and diversion of prescription opioids while ensuring their availability for patients who benefit from their use. Lynn R. Webster

48 The obligations to battle pain and addiction are not mutually exclusive, they are mutually inextricable Lynn R. Webster
