Amid an accelerating #opioidcrisis, rural USA #drugcourts are embracing the use of medication to treat addiction. “Medication for Opioid Use Disorder” (#MOUD) works through using buprenorphine or #methadone. It's proving effective—and losing its stigma.

Recently read a review of factors contributing to the opioid epidemic by Cerdá et al. Would highly recommend it to anyone interested in a concise and approachable rundown. I summarized it if time is of the essence.

Addiction treatment got easier during Covid. A new proposal would keep it that way
"Federal regulators on Tuesday announced a proposal to take the emergency policies enacted in 2020, in response to the emerging pandemic, and make them permanent. In particular, the changes would preserve patients’ expanded access to two key medications used to treat opioid addiction: #methadone and #buprenorphine "

Among the many problems with #fentanyl, it is making it harder to start treatment such as #buprenorphine. Time to deregulate #methadone. Like yesterday.

Holy shit. I just realized. Opium is opium! Like, every attempt to make not-opium #opium has just metabolized to opium. #Morphine, opium. #Heroin, opium. #Methadone...not sure on that one, but it's still an opiate. And #Kratom isn't even opium, but it still turns to the same chemicals in your system! It's such an obvious realization, but it's huge, because...
