Pain Management
Pain Management is a health discipline that deals with the control of a patient’s chronic pain. Chronic pain is a tragic, long-lasting, aspect of many medical conditions that is very difficult to treat due to the pervasive nature of the pain itself. In many cases the pain continues even after the original condition has been dealt with. By considering the pain itself from a multidisciplinary perspective (including analgesics, physical therapy and psychological measures) the educated Pain Manager can help patients achieve a better quality of life.
One of the advantages CD Whyte Ridge has (as a compounding pharmacy) is that we can customize medications for the individual patient with the approval of the attending physician. Medications with unpleasant symptoms such as stomach irritation can be compounded to minimize or eliminate these effects. It might be possible to change the delivery systems of medication so oral medications can be delivered as dermal gels, nasal sprays, flavoured lozenges or suppositories, anything that works for the patient.
At CD Whyte Ridge we treat Pain Management as a priority, for example prescriptions for these patients are always given first priority when the order comes in. We understand the extra challenges needed to be a problem solver in the field of Pain Management and will work tirelessly with the patient to minimize their symptoms and increase their comfort. We also offer added therapies as needed in the form of nutritional supplements and herbal remedies.
At CD Whyte Ridge we promise to work with our patients and to do whatever is necessary in order to help our patients control their pain and lead the best life they can.
