While opioids are seen as an effective treatment method for acute pain, there is an increasing debate on the efficacy of opioids when treating chronic pain conditions. One of the most common side effects of long-term opioid usage is constipation. Conditions like irritable bowel syndrome are more common in people who are living with chronic pain conditions, so better understanding of the connection between opioids and constipation is key for medical professionals currently working with chronic pain patients.

Featuring Dr Maria Eugenicos and Dr Cathy Stannard.

Hi all, I work for a research agency and we are conducting testing on a new website that we are making. This website provides information and support to people with OIC (Opioid Induced Constipation) . I would love to hear about you and your thoughts on the new website. This is paid research - £50 for 45 minutes.

If you would be willing to take part in a session - please fill in this form: docs.google.com/forms/d/1w_...
