Can you tell me exactly when is it appropriate to use opiates?

Depends: Opiate use has an appropriate place to treat pain when the patient is under the care of a physician who has made the determination that opiates are the first line of treatment. Opiates have a place in the medical treatment of certain pain conditions.
