Excerpt

Mr. T is a 55-year-old male with left knee osteoarthritis and gradually worsening left knee pain that is not responsive to acetaminophen. He has a close friend Mr. B who takes opioid medications for his knee pain and says that they really help him make it through the day with less pain. Mr. T wonders if he would benefit from opioids as well. You know there is a recent trial that examined this question nested snugly in the 20-deep pile of journals serving as your home office doorstop. You recall a recent Times headline “non-opioid drugs work as well as opioids for arthritis pain,” but you do not know the details and feel embarrassed to describe only the headline to your patient.1
