What is Pain? It is one of the most common issues that people approach the pharmacist for and it can happen in many conditions with different types of pain experienced. Depending on the severity and classification of the pain presented, pain may be managed at the community level using various medications available in a community pharmacy. As pharmacists, we may recommend different products for pain management based on our knowledge and experience.

This Practice Guide on Pain Management was created by reviewing international and local guidelines to standardise pain management practices among community pharmacists. This ensures that patients and customers receive consistent level of quality care at each community pharmacy outlet and at each visit.
