Optimizing opioid prescribing practices and advancing alternative treatment modalities is critical to reduce opioid-related morbidity and mortality.\u00a0<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Recent Findings<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Despite their well-documented risks\u2014including misuse, adverse effects, and detrimental impacts on postsurgical outcomes\u2014opioids remain the most commonly prescribed analgesics for back pain. Spine surgery, meanwhile, is frequently followed by intense postoperative pain due to central sensitization, which often necessitates opioid use and complicates pain management. This review provides an overview of current literature on opioid prescribing trends and alternative therapies for patients undergoing spine surgery.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Summary<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Following spine surgery, non-opioid pharmacologic agents and nutraceuticals can enhance analgesia and reduce opioid consumption. While erector spinae plane blocks and neuraxial techniques offer transient pain relief, their efficacy is limited by duration and potential risks. Spinal cord stimulation may benefit selected patients with back pain, although its opioid-sparing effects remain uncertain. Opioid prescribing should be limited to breakthrough pain and integrated into structured tapering strategies. Optimizing postoperative analgesia in spine surgery requires a multimodal approach, interdisciplinary collaboration, and individualized prescribing\u2014potentially guided by emerging tools such as pharmacogenomic testing.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1007\/s11916-025-01428-6","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,3]],"date-time":"2026-01-03T09:36:29Z","timestamp":1767432989000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Opioid Use Following Spine Surgery: Strategies for a Multimodal Approach To Pain Management"],"prefix":"10.1007","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"Leonie","family":"Erbeldinger","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Benjamin","family":"Martens","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Richard D.","family":"Urman","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Markus M.","family":"Luedi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,1,3]]},"reference":[{"key":"1428_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Cairns C, Kang K.
