Interventions to optimize prescribed medicines and reduce their misuse in chronic non-malignant pain: a systematic review.

Abstract

This study aims to systematically review the nature, process and outcomes of interventions to optimize prescribed medicines and reduce their misuse in chronic non-malignant pain (CNMP) with a particular focus on minimizing misuse of opiates.
