Pain Medication Management

Chronic Pain Relief through Oral Medication

When you’re taking several medications at one time to manage a chronic disease, you can easily feel overwhelmed. The experienced medical team at Commonwealth Pain & Spine coordinates your care with your pharmacist to ensure that your medications effectively treat your overall health. This helps you manage your pain, protects your health, and reduces your risk of medication-related mistakes or complications.

When Should You Seek Medication Management for Pain?

Medication management can be a valuable tool for effectively managing chronic pain and a range of other diseases. Consider seeking medication management if:

  • Pain is a significant symptom
  • Medication adherence is crucial for symptom control
  • The condition is likely to be long-lasting
  • The specific condition is one commonly treated with medication management

Medication management is crucial for chronic pain, requiring careful monitoring. Commonwealth Pain & Spine is committed to developing a personalized plan for your unique needs.

The Importance of Medication Management

Experiencing chronic pain can be a profound and daily challenge, affecting every aspect of your life. Here are just a few benefits you can anticipate from our compassionate approach to medication management for chronic pain relief:

  • Optimized pain control with the proper medication and dosages tailored to your condition
  • Reduced risk of side effects from individual medications or harmful drug interactions
  • Improved medication adherence to stay consistent with your medication routine
  • Increased overall wellness with a comprehensive approach to managing pain

With proactive pain medication management, you can feel confident in your treatment plan and take control of your health and pain symptoms.

Our Approach to Medication Management

Starting medication management at our practice is simple. Complete a self-referral form, and we'll work with your primary care provider to get a referral. After that, we'll contact you to schedule an appointment.

Our medication management process can include:

  1. Consultation: We'll review your medical history, current medications, and pain goals to create a personalized medication plan and explore other pain relief options that might help you. We'll also contact your pharmacist to discuss your medication regimen.
  2. Anticoagulation Management: If you're taking blood thinners, your physician and pharmacist will continually monitor your medication use and its effect on your health based on the medication's need. Services can include routine blood checks, dosage adjustments, and teaching patients self-care techniques.
  3. Pharmacogenomics Applications: Pharmacogenomics is a management service involving your genetic makeup and its role in medication therapy. Your physician and pharmacist will analyze genetic traits that can determine how certain medications can affect your health, allowing for personalized medication selection and dosing.
  4. Disease Management Support: Your physician and pharmacist can also collaborate to provide the support you need to make lifestyle changes and use other non-surgical therapies to improve your health. This ensures you receive comprehensive care for your chronic pain.

If you're having difficulty managing multiple pain medications, reach out to Commonwealth Pain & Spine! Our team will work with you to find relief and enhance your quality of life through tailored medication management.
