[Potentially addictive drugs on reimbursable prescription for chronic severe pain].
Changes in the Norwegian drug reimbursement system in 2008 included the establishment of a new reimbursement code (-71) which authorises coverage of expenditures for potentially addictive drugs in patients with severe, predominantly non-malignant, chronic pain. This reform has hitherto not been evaluated. ⋯ Aspects of this drug reimbursement regulation should be closely monitored, and may be in need of changes.
