Pharmacists on front lines of opioid crisis with new counseling program

NCT ID NCT05141266

Summary

This study tests whether a special pharmacist counseling program can help patients use opioid pain medications more safely and reduce misuse. The program is being tested in 14 community pharmacies in Utah with 350 adults who show signs of potentially misusing their opioid prescriptions. Researchers will compare the new counseling approach to standard medication advice to see which better helps patients manage their pain and medication use over six months.
