CPS by CPhA vs My Opioid Manager

CPS (formerly RxTx) has a new appearance. CPS is still the reliable, evidence-based drug resource it has always been and provides essential drug information at the point-of-care for health care practitioners. Now offering two subscription options – CPS Drug Information or CPS Full Access. CPS Drug Information is the Canadian standard for drug monographs, containing thousands of products including monographs for drugs, vaccines, natural health products and medical devices, approved by Health Canada. CPS Full Access includes all content from CPS Drug Information and the most current, evidence-based therapeutic information and non-prescription therapy for most common conditions, with cross-referenced drug tables and algorithms and DC condition-based drug tables. Both subscriptions types provide critical updates such as warnings and advisories; and useful tools such as medical calculators.

My Opioid Manager can be used as a tool to help patients suffering from pain understand and manage pain with use of opioids and other forms of therapy, in partnership with their health care provider. It provides tools and charts to track medications, create pain diaries, and document pain using pain diagrams. The app accompanies information material on understanding causes and types of pain, opioid types and uses, side effects and risks of opioids, and how to manage activity of daily living while taking opioids. The text content can be accessed within the app available in iBooks or PDF format.
