Anyone have suggestions or tips for understanding the equianalgesic scale and utilizing it? Thanks so much.

The equianalgesic scale is a way of comprehending the relationship between two different painkillers, basically. The baseline is 10 mg of morphine by mouth (or g-tube, I suppose).

Here is a site that might help it make more sense.
