I just got sent a consult request to take over care for a 35 yo with anxiety disorder on benzos and 150 MME's. Seems like her current pain doc's clinic had to close due to pandemic-related financial hardship.
Her progress notes from her last pain doc said she's on a combination of oxycodone and buprenorphine tabs... I thought that had to be a typo, but I pulled her PDMP and yup, she's on buprenorphine and oxycodone together... What am I missing? Does this make sense to anyone? I'll probably decline the consult but wanted to see if anyone on here could think of a reason why a pain doc would do something like this.
