WARNINGS
_LIMITATIONS OF USE _
Because of the risks associated with the use of opioids, SEVREDOL
tablets should only be used
in patients for whom other treatment options, including non-opioid
analgesics, are ineffective,
not tolerated or otherwise inadequate to provide appropriate
management of pain (see Section
4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use).
_HAZARDOUS AND HARMFUL USE _
SEVREDOL tablets poses risks of hazardous and harmful use which can
lead to overdose and
death. Assess the patient’s risk of hazardous and harmful use before
prescribing and monitor
the patient regularly during treatment (see Section 4.4. Special
warnings and precautions for
use).
_LIFE THREATENING RESPIRATORY DEPRESSION _
Serious, life-threatening or fatal respiratory depression may occur
with the use of SEVREDOL
tablets. Be aware of situations which increase the risk of respiratory
depression, modify dosing
in patients at risk and monitor patients closely, especially on
initiation or following a dose
increase (see Section 4.4 Special warnings and precautions for use).

(CNS) DEPRESSANTS, _
_INCLUDING ALCOHOL _
Concomitant use of opioids with benzodiazepines, gabapentinoids,
