Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My son had a plate removed from his shoulder in an outpatient procedure that was put in after an accident 4 years ago in. He was sent home with a prescription for 90 Ibuprofen 600mg and 60 Norco. I am not concerned that he might abuse these meds, but I wonder why so much pain medication was prescribed, especially in light of the opiate crisis in this country. I that an appropriate amount of pain meds in this case?
