An overdose kit should be part of any prescription for opioids such as OxyContin with pre-loaded naloxone in the kit. Localized pain such as postop surgery on extremities could be treated by injecting MITOMYCIN 0.01% normal saline solution could be injected by the surgeon at the time surgery in the operated area to minimize pain and limiting pain prescription medicine to codeine such as Tylenol with codeine 1/2 grain tablet every 4 to 8 hours only if needed.
