Course Description

Prescribers of opioids are often in the position of determining if the benefits of an opioid exceed the risk of prescribing. Developed in collaboration with Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada, this program was designed to provide physicians with common patient scenarios, provide expert commentary on the specific issues and allow physicians to share how they would manage these patient cases.

This program was co-developed by the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Canada and mdBriefCase Group, and was planned to achieve scientific integrity, objectivity, and balance.
