Opioid tapering is more than just a medication change. For many, it is a deeply personal and sometimes uncertain decision shaped by individual goals, concerns, and experiences. In this session, you will hear real insights from people who have been there, including what they feared, what they faced, and what helped. Together, we will unpack common misconceptions and share practical, evidence-informed approaches you can draw upon when considering changes in opioid use. We hope you will leave the session with greater clarity and perspective to help guide your personal decision-making about opioid use for chronic pain.
