March Course of the Month – Buprenorphine Update and Evolving Standards of Care

This course will describe recent changes in the epidemiology of opioid use disorder, including the current epidemic of fentanyl, carfentanil, and other fentanyl analogs. The course will review: 1) recent regulatory changes and their effect on clinical practice and collaborative care models, 2) the results of research studies comparing buprenorphine and extended-release naltrexone, 3) the impact of new medication formulations, including injectable buprenorphine, 4) evolving standards of care for medication-assisted treatment including models for the management of opioid overdose and the efforts to reduce or eliminate barriers to admission to long-term medication treatment, and 5) plans to expand access to evidence-based treatment within the justice system.
