RE: Confessions Of A Pharmaceutical Disillusionist – Open Letter to the Medical Community

in #health8 years ago

Great post. I think we have lost the idea of being conservative in our treatment when it comes to medication. Why use opiates when you can get by with NSAIDs? Personally I experienced this myself when I had pancreatitis opiates did nothing for the pain and NSAIDs did help a little. Opiates are great but they don't need to be used as often as they are. Also we need to pay more attention to the mind body link and using that to our advantage.
