In consultation with his outpatient psychiatrist, a client is admitted for detoxification from methadone. He states, “I got addicted to morphine for my chronic knee pain. Methadone worked for a long time. Since I had my knee replacement surgery 3 months ago and physical therapy, I don't think I need methadone any more.” It is important to discuss which of the following pieces of information with this client? Select all that apply.

1. “Detoxification will likely occur with slowly decreasing doses of methadone.”

2. “Oxycodone will be available if needed for break-through-pain.”

3. “You will be monitored closely for withdrawal symptoms and treated as needed.”

4.  “Physical therapy and nonchemical pain management techniques can be prescribed if needed.”

5.  “If you have knee stiffness or pain, it is likely to be managed by nonnarcotic pain medicines.”
