Of the opioid analgesic to the previous dose, and then proceed with a slower taper. In addition, evaluate patients for any changes in mood, emergence of suicidal thoughts, or use of other substances. When managing patients taking opioid analgesics, particularly those who have been treated for an extended period of time, and/or with high doses for chronic pain, ensure that a multimodal approach to pain management, including mental health support (if needed), is in place prior to initiating an opioid analgesic taper. A multimodal approach to pain management may optimize the treatment of chronic pain, as well as assist with the successful tapering of the opioid analgesic.Frequently asked questionsWhich drugs cause opioid-induced constipation?How long does oxycodone stay in your system?Oxycodone vs OxyContin - What's the difference?How long does opioid withdrawal last?How long does oxycodone take to work?Oxycodone vs Hydrocodone - How do they compare?Which painkiller should you use?What are the withdrawal symptoms of oxycodone?Further informationAlways consult your healthcare provider to ensure the information displayed on this page applies to your personal circumstances.Medical Disclaimer
