Non-Opioid Pain Treatment In New Jersey

Opioid medications such as oxycodone, morphine, codeine, and fentanyl are frequently prescribed to treat moderate to severe pain. Unfortunately, although they may provide effective temporary pain relief, these types of medications rarely offer a long-term solution for chronic pain. They can also be highly addictive and may cause side effects including drowsiness, confusion, sleep abnormalities, immune suppression, depression, reduced sex drive, and many more. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services reports that, in 2019 alone, more than 10.1 million Americans misused prescription opioids.

With all of these factors in mind, it is hardly surprising that many Americans are actively seeking alternatives to opioid pain relief. A wide variety of non-opioid pain management options can effectively reduce chronic pain and, in addition, offer a safer and longer-term treatment solution than opioid drugs.
