There has been a lot of coverage in the news about the problems with opioid medication overuse and while this is  huge concern, what happens when you have significant acute pain.  As anyone who has surgery knows,  it hurts afterwards!  While narcotic use after surgery, particularly orthopedic surgery, is not going away, there are alternatives: find out with me and anesthesiologist Anita Gupta, PharmD, DO of the Drexel University College of Medicine.

After that, we'll have GI Update, where I will tell you the latest and greatest in the world of digestive diseases and answer your questions at 1-877-NYU-DOCS! Or send me a tweet.
