Prescriptions under special surveillance

Prescriptions under special surveillance - Header image
Doctors have no doubt: supervision of opioid prescriptions needs to be strengthened to reduce the risk of issuing them unnecessarily, or to put it bluntly, because it's probably high time to do so - for criminal purposes.

Indeed, on the issue of opioid drugs, we are moving between two extremes: a large group of patients who require the administration of strong painkillers, primarily in terminal states of cancer, have problems obtaining and filling prescriptions; on the other hand, there are (incidentally, fortunately) cases where medical PWZs are used to produce prescriptions for the use of criminal activity. In fact, Polish doctors are unlikely to need to be educated about the necessary caution when prescribing opioids, and this is probably the main shield that protects us from repeating mistakes from overseas.
