Address Barriers to Treating Opioid Use Disorder During COVID-19
October 2020
You play a key role in helping patients with opioid use disorder during COVID-19...to address barriers to care, isolation, and stress.
Make every effort to ensure patients have access to meds for opioid use disorder (OUD) to avoid disruptions in care.
Continue to expect many patients to use a buprenorphine/naloxone combo for OUD...at a usual buprenorphine dose of 12 to 16 mg/day for sublingual tabs, up to 24 mg/day.
