Medication Management Therapy in Little Rock, AR

Neck and back pain is often treated with a variety of over-the-counter or prescribed medications depending on the severity of your pain. Some spine disorders, however, are so painful that they require a class of potentially addictive drugs that produce morphine-like effects. These are known as opioids, and they include oxycodone (Oxycontin), hydrocodone (Vicodin) and codeine, among others. To ensure your safety, all pain-relieving medication should be medically supervised by a qualified physician.

Our physicians rarely prescribe narcotic pain medications on your first visit to Southern Regional Pain Services.

Our physicians also verify your current medications with other prescribing doctors before beginning a treatment regimen.
