Abstract
The use of strong opioids in medical units is recurrent, mainly for analgesic purposes. The risk of occurrence of an overdose or an opioid use disorders causes very legitimate concerns for the physician, which may limit the use of opioid treatment or the adaptation of the doses necessary to relieve the patient. We provide a summary of the literature aimed at defining the indications, the adverse effects and the risks involved, the prescribing methods in order to reassure professionals and promote the safe use of these molecules.
