Episode 124: Treating Opioid Addiction
2 Docs Talk: The podcast about healthcare, the science of medicine and everything in between. - Een podcast door Kendall Britt, MD and Amy Rogers, MD
With our apologies to and appreciation of Frances McDormand. The opioid crisis is showing no signs of tapering off any time soon, so today, 2 Docs Talk about the cornerstone of opioid addiction treatment - medication assisted therapy or MAT. We also (because we can't resist) talk about the irony of the very company who triggered the epidemic with their deceitful marketing practices now profiting from selling the treatment for that very problem. Resources: Previously, we disucssed the opioid epidemic in episode 12 - you can find it right here.
