How Can Non-Opioid Analgesics Be Used in Multimodal Pain Management?
Non-opioid analgesics are a cornerstone of multimodal pain management, which involves using multiple methods and medications to control pain. This approach can enhance pain relief while minimizing the side effects associated with higher doses of a single medication. Nurses often collaborate with a multidisciplinary team to develop and implement an individualized pain management plan that may include physical therapy, psychological support, and other non-pharmacological interventions.
