Should Bupe be first line?

We really enjoyed this discussion with Dylan Sherry about his article (citation below) discussing buprenorphine as first line management for cancer related pain. I forgot to start recording until partway into the lecture, but the subsequent discussion is rousing. Click on Dr. Sherry’s picture to view the recording.
