New regulation for opioid pain killer users


Recommended Posts

I know I'm not the only one who uses prescribed Oxyneo or Tramadol to treat their various chronic pain conditions. In Canada some time this year they plan to implement random drug testing on patients who are using opioid pain killers. Which is fine, personally I think it's a little degrading and invasive, but I guess I can see where they are coming from, if they are trying to cut down on drug trafficking. But I don't agree with how hard they are making it on people who actually need the medication to funtion. More and more doctors including mine are forcing us to reduce and even stop our treatments because of the attention it draws from the government when they prescribe it.
