- Red Flags and the Standard of Care
In summary, in opioid-treated chronic pain populations, ADRBs are very common, addiction as a consequence of treatment is very uncommon, undertreatment of chronic pain is very common, and pain experts lack uniformity in interpreting the relative importance and significance of various ADRBs. Given this context, leaping to a conclusion that any particular behavior is caused by substance abuse or diversion of prescribed medication is unwarranted and represents a failure to employ a proper medical evaluation process.

- Whatever Happened to Controlled Drinking.
In the '60s and '70s, the topic of controlled drinking as an intervention goal was a flashpoint for controversy. Three decades later, moderate problem-free drinking is widely reported as a treatment outcome, and has become a mainstream early intervention goal. -- Even when the announced treatment goal is abstention, about 10% of treated cases are found to be drinking moderately at follow-up. Empirical guidelines are presented for estimating the probability of a client succeeding with moderation versus abstinence, based on scores from the Alcohol Dependence Scale and the MAST.
