Optimising Service Provision for Prescribed Opioid Analgesic Dependence

Marr E., and Hill D.

Summary: We share our experience of treating a patient with inadvertent co-codamol and tramadol dependency after treatment for dental pain and question the current Substance Misuse Service model that does not distinguish iatrogenic opioid dependency from illicit opioid use disorder. We suggest the appropriateness of a comprehensive primary-care-led treatment service tailored for opioid analgesic dependent (OAD) patients rather than a classic addiction service.
