Opioid prescription-use after cesarean delivery: an observational cohort study.
Claudia AvalosGuilia Dula RazzoliniSarah CrimminsKatrina MarkPublished in: Journal of anesthesia (2021)
Women were prescribed excess opioids. Excess opioids accounted for 63.3% of all pills filled, a total of 1670 pills leftover, most of which were stored in an unlocked location (75.6%). Our data showed a discrepancy of pills prescribed (24) compared to those used (10), which was also perceived as enough or too many by our participants. Our study demonstrates that women would benefit from fewer opioid pills and a discussion based on their pain perception.
