How exactly do you do this? I opened up internet explorer and sure enough there it was (it also worked using my mozilla), but I went back to internet explorer anyway. I clicked on "take the tour", but don't know what to do next.
Does one have to register and then you use the software??

I ran across this article on pain management which describes an 8-step strategy to determine equianalgesic oral and parenteral doses of opiods, e.g. meperidine, morphine, codeine, oxycodone, methadone, levorphanol, hydromorphone, and fentanyl and how to address changes in routes of administration.

There's a very brief description of neuropathic pain but it doesn't offer anything new as far as agents to address PN. Nonetheless, the article might help when people need to change among the opiod and related meds or change the route of administration.
