A pain management prescription is a medication order issued by a healthcare provider to alleviate or control a patient’s pain, often targeting acute or chronic conditions. These prescriptions may include analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs, opioids, or muscle relaxants, tailored to the patient’s symptoms and medical history. Issuing a prescription after a thorough assessment typically informs the safest, most effective pain management plan, ensuring the medication aligns with the patient’s specific condition and needs.
