`“Ziconotide is the fl rst major pain killer approved by the FDA in the past 25 years.
`So, it’s taken 25 years to come up with something that is better than morphine." At
`least it’s better for certain patients, he notes. especially for those who no longer
`respond to morphine. “Zinomotide does not give you addiction because it works by a
`lumlly diffurnltucchnnistn. Basically, il‘s by mum] taunting, and all yum
`doing is blocking the transmission at a level that has nothing to do with addiction."
`Additionally, mating solutions targeted at a certaintypc ofrcceptor, protein, or other
`biological component, without adversely alfezting other biological components, is an
`issue, Hameed adds
`“There is always a difllculty inproducing receptor specific medications that do not
`nervous sysie'nt thec'nant'sins, since that would tnc'rease tlie rislt ot activating central
`dopamine systems and produce analgesic tolerance, he says. Hargreaves believes the
`“OLAM system satisfies at least some ofthese criteria."
`For Mari, the complex process ofaddiction is one ofthe main barriers in developing
`non-addictive pain drugs. “Opioid receptors are responsible in great part for all of
`these addiction problems." he says. “They are good pain killers, but only last very
`shortly; after a while, some people develop tolerance to tnorplnne= so they no longer
`get analgesia from it.“ The alternatives currently are slim, he says.

`What 15 Chronic Pain?
`Pain is a natural sensation that is tnggered by your brain when you've been hurt in some way. The purpose
`of the pain response is to iet you know that you may have injured yourseit and need to take care Myourself
`We have all been in pain at one time or another. maybe from a fall, hum or sports injury. huttypicaity that
`pain level is short lived. In order For pain to be classified as chronic. it needs to be acute pain mat persists lor
`rnonms or even years. Common chronic pain compiaints include headache. low back pain. cancer pain.
`ennrnis pain. or pain that results nom nerve damage.
`
`Chronic Pain And Addiction
`Chronic pain Is often treated with opiate prescription pain medication. also known as painkillers While
`intended to be a short-term medical intervention. With chronic pain people often find themselves using the
`pain medications tor long periods of time and addiction is usually not far behind. This is because pain
`medication doesn't actually heal the pain or take it away. It simply masks it and the person gets high With an
`illusion that the pain is temporarily gone Over time. you need to take more plus to get the same result. so
`tolerance increases and the presence oi'withdrawai symptoms when you don‘t take the medication are
`inevitabie. The cycle Eton spirals and the addlcfion is born
`
`Non-Narcotic ('h rom't' Prr in Treatment
`At Destination Hope. we work with clients sutlering irom chronic pain by prowding a lot of fl‘ieiapy to help
`them cope with the emotions and life consequences that have manirestsd as a result or their pain. We aim
`work with heelthcare professionals that can oi'ler physical therapies and non-addictive medication options to
`chronic pain sufferers balding addiction. Painkillers affect the pleasure centers in the brain. nd eventually
`pain medication actauaiiy creates more pain as a result of increased toierance and withdrawal. Withdrawai
`symptoms can be quite painrul. making it dimcuit to datennine now much path a person is in as a result or a
`physical injury vs. withdrawal until they are detoxed appropriately and the pain medications are out afthelr
`system. After detox. we work with clients to assess their pain ieveis and ask scaling questions to eveiuale
`now debilitating their pain is or iltriey are sole to mnction at some ievei. From there. we utilize a combination
`of hon-narcotic approaches. These include massage. acupuncture. physical therapists. meditation. and
`chiropractors. Ollentirnes. people are looking tor a quick lie. and when you’re in pain that can mean taking a
`plti rather than putting the work in to heai or heip the Inlury recover. Non—narcotic physical medicai treatments
