AB  - Opioid  use  is  increasing  worldwide  leading  to  an  increasing  amount  of  opioid-tolerant  patients  who  may  require  acute  pain  management.  Pain  in  this  patient  population  is  often  poorly  understood  and  therefore  may  be  inadequately  treated.  The  main  goals  in  treating  acute  pain  in  opioid-tolerant  patients  are  providing  effective  pain  relief  and  minimizing  withdrawal  symptoms.  Other  challenges  include  assisting  with  social  issues,  poor  coping,  and  psychiatric  issues.  This  chapter  discusses  important  factors  to  consider  when  treating  acute  pain  in  opioid-dependent  patients.
