Citizens Petition? Anyone game? It is what #Kolodnykills and #PROP members did to get these insidious guidelines implemented. Why don’t we give it a go? By law they have to acknowledge and respond. I can’t do it alone, anyone else?
Citizen petitions are part of the basic law governing everything the FDA does - at any time, any “interested person” can request that the FDA “issue, amend, or revoke a regulation or order,” or “take or refrain from taking any other form of administrative action.”[5] Originally

@jessilynn68@AnalEmbke the suffering and inhumane treatment of intractable pain patients!
Many have lost their medications, doctors or have been significantly tapered
@jessilynn68@AnalEmbke We have lost the respect of family, friends, neighbors and the medical community some have even taken their lives due to suicide.
Equating Intractable Pain Patients to drug abusers (as you state more times than not, drug addicts) because we take our medications to get a sense
Although originally intended the guideline was “supposed” voluntary and only intended for primary care physicians treating non-cancer pain, many pain patients have been
- forcibly tapered to lower doses,
- cutoff entirely or even
abandoned by their doctors – all under the guise of preventing addiction and overdoses.
- The CDC has stood by and done nothing to correct the false portrayal of its guidelines by insurance companies and pharmacies and doctors
AMA affirms that some patients with acute or chronic pain can benefit from taking opioids at greater dosages than recommended by the CDC Guidelines for Prescribing Opioids for chronic pain and that such care may be medically necessary and appropriate.
