Why offer this training? The FDA has mandated manufacturers of extended
release/long-acting (ER/LA) opioid analgesics, as part of a comprehensive
Risk Evaluation and Mitigation Strategy (REMS), to make available
comprehensive prescriber education in the safe use of these medications.
Our training is based on the FDA curriculum known as the Blueprint for Prescriber
Education for Extended Release and Long-Acting Opioid (ER/LA) Analgesics.
Our curriculum covers all aspects of this blueprint and more to provide a
comprehensive educational program.
