some good studies out there showing that Tylenol is AS EFFECTIVE in controlling chronic pain, (and acute pain in ED) as the opioids.

For SOME conditions (e.g., chronic back pain or hip or knee osteoarthritis pain).

True. Not talking about severe acute pains, although there’s a study in the ER that says non-opioids were as effective.

I had a kidney stone, I needed something fast acting once the pain started. There’s a definite indication for opioids.
