Doctors know that approximately 50% of all patients
undergoing pain management will not receive adequate
relief (Figure 3) at first dosing and/or are at a higher
risk of experiencing adverse, potentially life- threatening
events.
80% of all pain management drugs are prescribed
by the general practitioner or the internist. With the
epidemic of opioid abuse so prevalent, clinicians are
looking for other methods to treat pain and injuries
through injection therapy and patients, in turn, are
looking for non-invasive options to avoid any type
of surgical procedure. With the advancement of
medical technology, regenerative medicine is now a
popular and successful alternative to treat the
management of pain.
