Overview
We only have so many tools in our pain pharmacology tool-box. Often, developing a patient care regimen can be challenging and requires not only creativity but extensive patient education. This brings up the question, do we really remember how each drug works, what the pros and cons of each drug are and what the appropriate expectations for therapy are? Once we are confident in this, how do we explain it to the patients in a way that will support their decision-making and success? This presentation is a deep dive into the non-opioid medications available for pain management and practical tips for patient conversations.

Objectives

Describe the benefits and components of a shared decision-making model.
Identify the mechanism of action of three non-opioid pain medications and translate this information into patient appropriate talking points.
Explain how coaching strategies can minimize decision making conflict in patients.
