Pain management and addiction medicine are two specialized fields of medical practice
that share a strong common interest in the mechanisms, clinical use, and risks and benefits
associated with opioid drugs and other therapies involving potentially abusable medications.
In addition to these pharmacological issues, there are profound clinical interactions
between the potential of addictive disorders and the occurrence of unrelieved pain that
influence both the management of substance use disorders and the care of pain patients.
