❎ MythMorphine is addictive and shortens life.
✅ FactMorphine is an effective treatment for severe pain. When properly prescribed, it does not shorten life — it helps a person live without constant suffering. Enduring severe pain is not a norm or "endurance for loved ones".
It is suffering that can and should be reduced. Fear of pain relief often costs people sleepless nights, exhaustion, and avoidable pain.
The "Myths and facts about palliative care" awareness campaign is part of the project "Expanding access to home care and palliative care services in 7 communities of Ukraine", supported by the "Askold and Dir" Fund, administered by ISAR Ednannia within the project "Strong civil society of Ukraine — a driver of reforms and democracy", funded by Norway and Sweden.
