Abstract

Primary care attitudes affecting the use of strong opioids in pain management have changed considerably in the last 3 decades.

The article identifies for primary care physicians the current challenges and issues surrounding the use of opioid analgesics for noncancer pain and examines how new technology and expanding knowledge have been applied to existing opioids such as morphine, oxymorphone, and fentanyl to address continuing challenges in pain management.
