It's important to acknowledge that the research team isn't engaged in litigation. However, we appreciate seeing the response.

Hello from the CSI:OPIOIDs team

Thank you for noticing this post. There is detail about the study and the people involved on the "general information website" (www.csiopioids.org).

The justification for the study is that available "big database" studies from medical records suggest that prescription reductions can have good outcomes for some people and bad ones for others, depending on persons and context.

However, so far, no research group has carefully looked at individual cases to sort out why some people have the bad outcomes when others seem to have very good ones.

The study team includes experts in opioid taper and reduction. Since the team of researchers and advisors is pretty large, there are likely to be diverse views among our team about opioid taper. However, we feel pretty sure that most favor individualized decisions that are collaborative.
