Nope - cheap on your prescription plan , but expensive to society in addicts, lost productivity, pain clinics and methadone clinics to treat the problem, more deaths from prescription opioids than all street drugs combined in our country.
Sugar coat it if you want. It is expensive in the long run. Accepting pain as the "5th vital sign " was a huge mistake and a political decision rather than a medical one. Hard to argue with the statistics on this one.
