A Shared Burden: The Military and Civilian Consequences of Army Pain Management Since 2001: Miltary and Civilian Consequences of Army Pain Management Since 2001: Carlisle Papers

The Army has an opioid drug problem that is not going away under current personnel policies and medical practices. The survey results recorded here indicate that senior officers attending the U.S. Army War College recognize that the opioid problem is distinct in nature and origin from those of recreational drug abuse. The majority of these future Army leaders see misuse originating out of prescribing practices, a lack of medical monitoring, and a lack of soldier training and education on the dangers of opioids, rather than from undisciplined soldiers. This work may appeal to U.S. Army leaders, substance abuse treatment center and clinic professionals, as well as physicians that treat military personnel, and Army preparedness/soldier health teams, military veterans,and military families.
