Webinar: Caring for persons on methadone in primary care: Toward safer, more inclusive care Events
Methadone is a first-line treatment for opioid use disorder and its use is associated with reduced morbidity, mortality, blood-born viral infections and social harms. Despite these benefits, methadone remains a poorly understood and stigmatized medication. Comprehensive primary care that includes integrated opioid agonist therapy results in improved preventative health screening and higher client satisfaction.
