About this listen

This week's case is about a patient, Tania, a 37- year-old female with chronic pain from lupus vasculitis and peripheral neuropathy. She has episodes of severe abdominal pain and describes intermittent electrical sensations in her legs and feet. Medications include hydroxychloroquine and azathioprine for lupus, duloxetine and bupropion for depression, and meloxicam, gabapentin, and lidocaine patches for pain. For severe pain she uses hydrocodone/acetaminophen 10 mg/325 mg, 1-2 tablets every 4-6 hours, and is prescribed 84 tablets every 28 days. She fills this medication on time every 4 weeks and has never requested early refills.
