Patients and health care professionals (HCPs) face additional challenges when the treatments prescribed for pain management (e.g., opioids) lead to substance use problems. HCPs must then re-evaluate treatment plans for acute, subacute, and chronic pain and encourage treatment for opioid use disorder (OUD). There are strategies available to HCPs to help identify patients at risk for OUD, most notably found in the 2022 CDC Guideline for Prescribing Opioids, which could help prevent OUD in patients through screening and identifying alternate treatments.
