Feedback:
Oral medications are the first choice for pharmacologic pain management. Clients usually administer their own oral medications, based on pain severity. Some oral medications are very effective for mild pain; NSAIDs and combination medications, such as oxycodone with ASA (aspirin, Percodan), are commonly used. When oral, rectal, or transdermal medications no longer control pain, parenteral medications may be administered subcutaneously, intramuscularly, intravenously, or intrathecally.
