**
**  Recommendation #11
**    When prescribing opioids for subacute or chronic pain, clinicians should consider the benefits 
**    and risks of toxicology testing to assess for prescribed medications as well as other prescribed 
**    and nonprescribed controlled substances (recommendation category: B; evidence type: 4).
**
**  When
**    There exists an active opioid analgesic with ambulatory misuse potential in the outpatient setting or
**    There exists an active benzodiazepine or other central nervous system depressant medication
**    Opioid review is useful for this patient:
**      Patient is 18 or over
**      Patient does not have evidence of sickle cell disease
**      Patient does not have findings indicating limited life expectancy
**      Patient does not have orders for therapies indicating end of life care
**      Patient is not undergoing active cancer treatment:
**        Patient has had at least 2 office visits within the past 12 months with an oncology specialist present, or
**        Patient has had at least 2 office visits within the past 12 months with a CDC malignant cancer condition diagnosis
**      Patient does not have conditions likely terminal for opioid prescribing present
**    Patient prescribed opioid analgesic with ambulatory misuse potential and benzodiazepine or other central nervous system depressant medication concurrently
**  Then
**    Use particular caution when prescribing opioid pain medication and benzodiazepines concurrently:
**      Document - Will modify prescription
**      Snooze - Benefits outweigh risks, snooze 3 months
**      Snooze - N/A see comment, snooze 3 months
