To avoid misuse what should you do with pain medication your doctor prescribes you for an injury
max2010maxim [7]

Pain medications for injury are usually opioids that need proper handling to avoid any misuse. I will follow the directions as explained on the label, by my doctor and pharmacist.

Moreover, I will never stop or change my dosing regimen without discussing it with my doctor so I can avoid misusing the drug and I will store my pain medication in the proper place where it will never be reach by children.

In case that there are unused or expired medications, I will never give it to other person. Instead, I will drop off the medication to a DEA-designated drop box or take-back program.
