Preventing opioid overuse after a new injury
Part of Pain clinical trials.
This study tests a program to help people who have just had a musculoskeletal injury (like a broken bone or muscle strain) use fewer opioid pain pills while still managing their pain well. It may help you recover with less risk of becoming dependent on opioids.
