Addressing Nicotine Use in Patients with Opioid Use Disorder

Format: Webinar
This session explores the complex relationship between nicotine and opioid use, including shared biological pathways and how co-use can intensify pain, cravings, and withdrawal.

Pregnancy Wraparound Care for Rapid Methadone Stabilization in Hospital Setting and Linkage to Opioid Treatment Programs

Pregnant and postpartum women with OUD face fragmented and siloed health care, systemic barriers, stigma and multifaceted challenges, which contribute to adverse outcomes and significant negative consequences for individuals and society. Methadone is an essential component of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) treatment, with substantial evidence highlighting its benefits for maternal-and-fetal-health.
