Despite low-quality evidence supporting practice change, use of opioids for chronic pain increased dramatically over the past two decades. Concurrently, there has been a sharp increase in opioid analgesic overdose deaths, addiction, misuse and diversion. Opioids may provide modest, variable short-term pain relief for some patients with chronic pain. Long-term benefits for chronic pain have not been established. Potential medical and behavioral harms of opioids are an important concern, particularly at higher dosage levels and in higher risk or medically complex patients. While opioid therapy at lower doses may be a useful treatment for some patients, it should only be considered for carefully evaluated, closely monitored patients when a cautious, structured and selective approach is employed, and clear benefits for pain and function are documented. Opioid treatment always entails risks for patients, their families and the community, so vigilance and caution are essential.
It has always been rumored that Andrew Kolodny and PROPaganda had approached the FDA to place strict limits on what pts could be prescribed opiates.  The date on this video Oct,2011. it has been reported that the FDA – REJECTED THIS… and so it would appear that PROPaganda’s efforts were redirected  towards the CDC… the agency in charge of overseeing contagious diseases.  Which evolved into what is now know as the CDC opiate dosing guidelines.  The discovery of CYP-450 liver enzyme system was just – at best – in its infancy when this film was uploaded, so most of the opinions of these physicians was based on what today would be considered as back in the “dark age” of medical science in regards to how our bodies metabolizes meds and other substances using some 50 different liver enzymes.
In the video they talk about chronic pain studies of 12 & 16 weeks… long term opiate therapy is >90 days of continuous therapy – so any of the 12 week (84 days) studies could even be consider as creditable when talking about using opiates FOR LONG TERM THERAPY.
The FDA was created in 1906 to basically stop “snake oil medicine” from being out on the market place.
Here is a handful of physicians & “medical experts” trying to undo all the clinical studies done to get  meds FDA approved.. according to this video based on their personal observations of chronic pain pts and effectiveness of opiate therapy… without really any controls on the pts who receive the medications.

U know,when u got guys that stand to making billions off of prop-aganda to disc the essential medicine opiates,you’ve got a huge conflict of interest..dahhhhhh,,,,Furthermore,,what kind of character of mankind do they represent,when they promote the denial of effective physical pain relief for the medically ill in physical pain from their illness?That is the character of tortures,of hitlers,who think they have the devine right to force cruel,inhuman,suffering in physical form upon the weakest in society,the medically ill.Why would anyone blindly follow tortures of mankinds weakest ,the medically ill?I guess all those who follow kolodnys’ lead ,truly have no humane character just like Adolf Hitler,?To allow a self righteous psychiatrist to make public policy on medical condition he has NO KNOWLDEGE of is criminal ,and shall be investigated for such a crime against humanity in America.U never alllow a psychiatrist to make public policy,it only harms or kills people as proven w/the CPPP people,in America,,jmo,maryw
