Medications are considered the first line and standard-of-care treatment for opioid use disorder. Without them, people with such disorders are at high risk of death. However, each medication comes with different physical properties and federal regulations that influence client care plans. Using case examples, this webinar will compare, contrast, and provide the scientific evidence for each of the three FDA-approved medications for opioid use disorder. Additionally, the session will focus on the importance of communication and collaboration between the healthcare and judicial systems to build individualized plans for clients.
