UPDATE - NOVEMBER 2018 Taken from Dr Motov's work on a CERTA regime. This is published in conjunction with the CERTA concept explanation here. We can all provide superior analgesia by using medication and techniques other than just opioid medications. This is NOT a definitive list and in all cases, local policies and protocols should be followed. Check your local formularies. This is NOT a prescribing guideline - it is for EDUCATIONAL information ONLY. We do not dispute the role of opioids in many spheres of practice, including emergency medicine, ICU and anaesthetics; rather we wish to highlight the pandemic of high opioid and opiate use. There are many medications available to reduce the amount of opioids used. You may find, when considering your analgesia regimes that opioids are not always the best options for emergency pain issues. We would advocate the use of nerve blocks in the first instance to control acute pain, when feasible.
With respect to alternatives listed for non-radicular back pain, it has been brought to our attention that a new study was presented in 2017 which showed that "diazepam has no benefit when added to naproxen vs placebo" in acute low back pain. See here.

HD Fullscreen of the infographs are at the bottom PDF at bottom of page I preface this infographic with the caveat that it is an exercise in discussion only, not an exhaustive or conclusive analysis of all systematic reviews within this time period. I have done my best to accurately analyse the trawled data - please do get in touch if you have any suggestions on improvements. I have no conflicts of interest and am not involved in any systematic reviews or trials with any organisation.
These studies were found on PubMed and are ONLY the ones with completely #FOAMed access.
