Vancouver Division has partnered with the Therapeutics Initiative for this CME workshop. Join Dr. Tom Perry to learn about evidence for/against the use of non-opioids in treating chronic non-cancer pain:

  • how likely is it for a patient to report meaningful pain improvement with any of the drugs (and which ones specifically)
  • in these patients, how soon will you know if drug is working
  • is there a dose response for pain reduction? for toxicity?
  • real patient videos to illustrate aforementioned points
  • related articles from the Therapeutics Initiative:

This event was open to Vancouver Division members only and dinner was provided. Thank you for your interest!
