H.R. 4509, the NOPAIN for Veterans Act, would expand access to safe, non-opioid pain management options within the VA health care system. Please contact your elected officials and urge them to cosponsor and support this important legislation now: dav.la/hr4509.

This bill would require VA to include Food FDA-approved non-opioid medications and biological products in its national formulary, ensuring veterans have access to effective and less addictive alternatives for treating pain.

By expanding access to nonaddictive treatments, the bill seeks to reduce dependency, improve long-term pain outcomes and enhance the quality of life for service-disabled veterans living with chronic pain. #DAV #veterans #military #DAVCAN
