Case Study
The Case of Peter
Injured in an accident, Peter, a 23-year-old separated white male, was hospitalized for several weeks and given morphine for pain. Upon discharge, OxyContin was prescribed. Two months after release, Peter continues to describe high levels of pain. He has seen his physician twice to request more and stronger dosages of OxyContin. Today, he made a third appointment and his estranged wife called the physician to discuss her concerns over Peter’s continued pain, as well as his changing behavior, including irritability, work absenteeism, and often groggy appearance. Peter told her that he is having flashbacks about the accident and that the medication seems to help alleviate these as well as his physical pain.
