Why are people still dying?
People die because provider education is slower or less effective than advocacy, FDA regulation & federal legislation

How do we stop people dying?
• Naloxone Co-prescription to high risk groups
• Stop prescriptions of opioids to people with inappropriate risk benefit ratios

NIH Conclusions Sept 28-29 2014
Aberrant drug-related behaviors ranged from 5.7 percent to 37.1 %. Long-term opioid therapy was associated with increased risk of: • abuse (one cohort study), • overdose (one cohort study), • fracture (two observational studies), • myocardial infarction (two observationals)• sexual dysfunction (one cross-sectional study)several studies showing a dose-dependent association.

NIH Conclusions Sept 28-29 2014
• Evidence on long-term opioid therapy for chronic pain is very limited but suggests an increased risk of serious harms that appears to be dose-dependent.
• More research is needed to understand long-term benefits, risk of abuse and related outcomes, and effectiveness of different opioid prescribing methods and risk mitigation strategies.

Discontinuing Opioids
•Educate the patient about the need to stop when goals are not met.
• Discuss the process involved• Explain alternative therapies.

Neither Safe nor Effective
• Whereas it was previously thought that unlimited dose escalation was safe, evidence now suggests that prolonged, high-dose opioid therapy may be neither safe nor effective.

Murphy et al (2013) Clin J Pain
• Opioid analgesic use at admission had no discernible impact on treatment outcome in this large VA sample with moderate to severe chronic pain syndrome.
• Bold clinical implications of these findings for long-term chronic pain treatment, in light of the risks associated with opioids.

Guidelines• Physicians are in a better position now to
control opioid use so that it helps, rather than harms, patients.
• Current guidelines recommend:• # 1.) a cautious approach to dose
escalation and• # 2.) the discontinuation of opioids
if treatment goals are not met.

Why to “not prescribe” for chronic lower back pain ??
• Alternate treatments (psycho & physical) have a stronger evidence base
• OPIOIDS are deactivating not activating
• Reduced prescribing for nonspecific back pain would reduce overall prescribing and benefit public health

GUIDELINES need EXIT
• Physicians are in a better position now to control opioid use so that it helps, rather than harms, patients.
• Current guidelines recommend:• # 1.) a cautious approach to dose
escalation and• # 2.) the discontinuation of
opioids if treatment goals are not met.

5 Reasons: Discontinuing Opioids
Chou R, et al. J Pain. 2009;10:113-30. Department of Veterans Affairs, Department of Defense. VA/DoD Clinical Practice Guideline for Management of Opioid Therapy for Chronic Pain. 2010.

No progress toward therapeutic goals
Intolerable & Unmanageable AEs
• 1 or 2 episodes of increasing dose without prescriber knowledge
• Sharing medications• Unapproved opioid use to treat another
symptom (e.g., insomnia)
• Use of illicit drugs or unprescribedopioids
• Repeatedly obtaining opioids from multiple outside sources
• Prescription forgery• Multiple episodes of prescription
loss
Nonadherence or unsafe behavior
Aberrant behaviors suggest addiction &/or diversion
Pain level decreases in
stable patients

5 REASONS lead to 4 OPTIONS
• Explain why lack of progress or breach of treatment agreements raise your concerns of addiction.
• Benefits of opioids no longer outweigh risks.“I cannot responsibly and morally continue prescribing opioids, as I feel it would cause you more harm than good.”
• Always offer a referral for addiction treatment.

THREE (3) phases of weaning
• #1. Establish a baseline• #2. Reduce the dose• #3. Treat protracted / post-acute withdrawal

MEDICAL TAPER
1. Note in chart: legitimate pain diagnosis, reason for discontinuation of opioids, nonemergency situation, outline of taper, end date for prescribing
2. Have the patient read and initial the note.3. Prescribe 10% fewer opioid analgesics
per week

MEDICAL TAPER4. Reassess at week #8:
– If going well, continue– If not going well, plan for
detoxification5. On week #10:
• Stop prescribing, • educate patient about withdrawal
symptoms, • urge patient to go to the ER if withdrawal
appears, and admit for detoxification

SUMMARY• Naloxone has a very important place• Chronic OPIOIDs not safe or effective -
Ballantyne• 18-20 Years of opioids based on studies that
lasted < 6 wks (chronic pain is >12 wks)• OPIOID MI risk higher than COX-2 • After FISHMAN’s book ROP the deaths
increased; Provider Ed isn’t enough• VA study opiate vs. nonopiate = no difference

SUMMARY• Poor outcomes – LBP, fibromyalgia & headache• 5 reasons to discontinue• 3 phases of weaning • 4 options at high dose• 10 WEEK TAPER• EMERGENCY – no taper• REMS may not be bold enough to impact “The Problem”• Knowing “Discontinuation” is more important than
cautious dose increase when goals are not met.
