#336 Updates in Addiction Medicine: Live from SGIM
Learn from an expert panel in addiction medicine about a potpourri of fascinating topics, with updated data to guide clinical decision-making. We picked the brains of physicians Stefan Kertesz, Ximena Levander, Kenny Morford, and Katherine Mullins to learn about the latest updates in opioid tapering (don’t do it if there isn’t a good reason!), how to define recovery in alcohol use disorder, different options to treat methamphetamine use disorder, and Hepatitis C treatment in patients with active IV drug use. And there’s so much more, that we’re following this with a whole series in Addiction Medicine, set to come out in early July 2022!
