Abstract
Individuals who seek medication-assisted treatment for opiate addiction are generally prescribed methadone along with behavioral counseling at a licensed opiate treatment program (OTP). For OTP clients who also have chronic non-cancer pain (CNCP), the disease of addiction is treated, but the disease of CNCP may not be addressed. Though connecting opioid dependence and CNCP may seem obvious since opioids produce both analgesia and euphoria, limited data is available on their co-occurrence and the impact on treatment outcomes.
