Key points
- Opioids must only be prescribed after careful physical, psychosocial, and vocational assessment.
- Misuse of prescription opioids can be reduced by good prescribing practice.

- Oral or transdermal route of administration should be used; parenteral, sublingual, or transnasal routes should be avoided.
- Meperidine is particularly unsuitable for patients with persistent pain.
- There are factors that might predict whether a patient is likely to misuse prescription opioids.
- Management of prescription opioid misuse requires prompt intervention and a multidisciplinary approach.
