    Journal: GMHC Treat Issues; 1995 Apr; 9(4):5, 10-2. PubMed ID: 11362366.
    Abstract:
    Pain management for people with HIV-infection and AIDS is discussed with regard to pain assessment and the use of various pharmacologic interventions. The use of nonsteroidal anti- inflammatory drugs, opiates, alternative routes of administration, the treatment of peripheral neuropathy and aphthous ulcers, and the problem of pain resulting from repeated injections are also examined. Other interventions that are highlighted involve the use of radiation/chemotherapy, nerve blocks, and complementary therapy.
