Welsh Guidelines For Neuropathic Drugs And Opiates


Today's post from wales.nhs.uk (see link below) is a very useful one for anybody living with neuropathy severe enough to require the use of opiates to control the symptoms. The page consists of a series of links which you can choose to follow; all leading to important information about the title subject. Very often, we're prescribed drugs by our doctors but have little idea of what they are and how they work. It's always useful to have a resource which medical practitioners also use because then you can be sure that the information is accurate. Don't be afraid to check up on what you're putting into your body and if you have questions, take them to your doctor or specialist.
