Safe Use of Opioids
Our goal is to treat your medical conditions, including pain, effectively, safely and in the right way.
Pain medication treatment can be complicated. Mistakes or abuse of pain medication can cause serious health problems and even death.
We will only provide pain relief options that are considered by medical standards to be safe and correct.
We follow legal practices when prescribing medications. We do not refill lost prescriptions. If your prescription is lost or stolen, please notify the police. Our health care providers can use the California Prescription Drug Monitoring Program called CURES to track prescriptions for opioid pain medication and other controlled substances.
