A study of the use of post-operative opioid analgesics following rhinology surgery in 35 patients.

CONCLUSION: The study shows that the quantity of post-operative opioid analgesics prescribed does not compare with the amount consumed by patients to relieve pain, resulting in a surplus of opioid medication which has the potential to be abused. PMID: 31722774 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
