Could you explain the reasoning behind why doctors have seemingly stopped using Demerol in their medical practices? Is there a particular safety concern or a more effective alternative that has emerged? I'm curious to know if there's been a shift in medical opinion or if regulatory changes have played a role in this decision. I'd appreciate a detailed overview of the factors contributing to the decline in Demerol's usage.
