Dr. Antje Barreveld, Anesthesiologist (Tufts University)
"A reporter recently asked me about what harm I may have caused as a pain management physician who prescribes opioids. As I reflected on my last 10 years in this field, my response was that the harms I may have caused were because I under-prescribed these drugs, not over prescribed them."
Dr. Nkeiruka Orajiaka, Pediatrics (Nationwide Children’s Hospital)
"And with all of the publicity around opioids, treating injured children’s pain has become a complicated, and often emotional, issue. Pain can often be eased with acetaminophen or ibuprofen. But severe injuries that cause excruciating pain usually require something stronger, like an opioid."
