Risk of abuse can be minimized by using appropriate screening, rational prescribing (abuse deterrent formulations) and appropriate monitoring. Biological/Cultural/Environmental Factors Do no harm! When in doubt, do prescribe naloxone

12 Pain Management Chronic Opioid Risk Stratification LOW: ORT < 4 AND < 3 Minor Risk Factor AND No abnormal urine screens MODERATE: ORT > 4 OR > 2 Minor Risk Factor OR > 1 abnormal urine screen OR Takes over 100mg Oral DME Hx substance abuse Suboptimal MGMT of psychiatric Dx Weigh Risks and Benefits of Opioid Therapy HIGH: ORT > 4 OR > 2 Minor Risk Factor OR 1 or more Major Risk Factor OR > 1 abnormal urine screen OR Documented overdose OR Suboptimal MGMT of psychiatric Dx If: Urine screen: 2x/year Visit Interval: Up to 3 months Review PMP Every 6 months Urine screen: 4x/year Visit Interval: Up to 2 months Review PMP Every 2 months Substance Use Evaluation as soon as new risk level identified Urine screen: 6x/year Visit Interval: Up to 1 month Review PMP monthly Identify and engage patient support system emphasize risk/benefits of medication educate and dispense naloxone consider home health safety evaluation Risk> Benefit STOP Opioid THERAPY Referral Army 15 of 400 to 1
