The book explores the impact of restrictive opioid prescribing guidelines on pain patients in the U.S., highlighting a century-long struggle for adequate treatment. It critiques the role of the Physicians for Responsible Opioid Prescribing (PROP) in shaping these guidelines, which have failed to address addiction and overdose rates. By examining the neurobiology of pain and addiction, the narrative advocates for treating addiction as a medical condition rather than restricting pain medications. The story of Patient Z exemplifies the challenges faced by millions affected by these policies.
