AI Summary
This bill requires the Secretary of Health and Human Services to issue draft guidance within one year of enactment to address the development of non-addictive analgesics (pain relievers) for chronic pain. The guidance will include the information required under the SUPPORT for Patients and Communities Act, such as recommendations for clinical trial designs and endpoints. This is intended to facilitate the development of alternative pain treatment options that are less prone to addiction compared to opioids, which have contributed to the ongoing opioid crisis in the United States.
