Physicians for Responsible Opioid Prescribing (PROP)

Physicians for Responsible Opioid Prescribing (PROP) is a medical organization dedicated to promoting safer, evidence-based use of opioids, which are powerful pain-relieving medications. They aim to reduce the risks of addiction and overdose by encouraging doctors to follow best practices, such as appropriate patient assessment, careful prescribing, and exploring alternative pain treatments. PROP also advocates for policies that balance effective pain management with minimizing opioid-related harms, emphasizing the importance of physician education, research, and responsible prescribing to improve public health outcomes.
