https://www.afinalwarning.com/450245.html (Natural News) Patients may be more likely to receive prescriptions for opioids when they come in for checkups and appointments later in the day even when they don’t really have a need for the drugs.
According to the researchers, this could be linked to the daily pressures and time constraints that doctors face, which could interfere with their decision-making process.
As described in
JAMA Network Open, the research team took data from 678,319 primary care appointments, all of which were related to health issues related to pain, such as headaches, back pains, joint diseases, musculoskeletal conditions including fibromyalgia and other pain syndromes. None of the patients had received an opioid prescription in the past 12 months.
