A book written by clinicians for clinicians that presents a broad view of the clinical applications of opioids; it covers the pharmacology of opioids and its clinical application in a wide range of situations from acute to chronic cancer and non-cancer pain across ages from paediatric to geriatric populations.
It also covers the socio-historical, ethical, legal and criminal aspects related to the use of opioids, and includes the limitations of opioids as well as recommended precautionary measures when prescribing these drugs. For the busy clinician who has to manage pain either as a generalist or a specialist, this is a very handy text to keep within reach.
