Risk of OD to prescribed #opioids is 0.13% (Kaiser, Jnl of Pain 2019), while risk of death by OD increases more than 300% with dose variability of ≥30% (JAMA 2019).

0.13% = risk of OD to prescribed #opioids (Kaiser 2019). Dose reduction is "inconsistent" in lowering OD risk. Research found "no support for RSM [risk stratification & monitoring] as a means of decreasing overdose.”

0.1% to 0.23% = risk of OD to prescribed #opioids, per Canada's 2017 Guideline.
0.1% for <20 MED, 0.14% for 20–49, 0.18% for 50–99 MED, 0.23% for ≥100 MED.
Discontinuation carries a significantly higher risk of death.

Hoje vai a votos a proposta do PCP de aumento do Salário Mínimo Nacional.

Se para as grandes empresas o que está em causa é a manutenção dos seus lucros de centenas de milhões de euros, para centenas de milhares de micro, pequenos e médios empresários, o aumento dos salários é condição essencial para a manutenção da sua actividade. +
Aumentar salários torna evidente a escolha que temos pela frente: defender condições dignas de vida e a actividade de milhões de homens e mulheres que vivem do seu trabalho, ou defender os mega-lucros de um punhado de grandes empresa.

2017 Review: “Expert guidelines recommend reducing or discontinuing long-term #opioid therapy when risks outweigh benefits, but evidence on the effect of dose reduction on patient outcomes has not been systematically reviewed.” / #cpp thread.

For 4 yrs, an rx #opioid let Austin Sell escape the cage of pain, care for his kids, study to become a physician asst to help others w/ #ChronicPain. Then lawmakers in DC imposed a limit on what his clinic could prescribe. "And that was it. The app'ment lasted about 10 minutes."
Dr @StefanKertesz told @Harpers: “In a time of incredible tragedy, there’s a desire for something simple to latch onto as a way of explaining it. A story that has a clear-cut villain, with doctors as dupes and patients as innocent victims, is about as easy to sell as any story.”
