Indiana State opioid prescription legislation has been shown to decrease overall opioid prescriptions. However, this effect has not been studied in specific diseases associated with chronic pain such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). We aimed to determine the effect of state opioid prescription legislation on opioid prescribing patterns in IBD.
