37 Components of Withdrawal Treatment Inpatient OB monitors fetus daily for distress Stabilize on methadone then taper dose If fetal distress slow taper, dose 3 & 7 day tapers at specialty units Discharge Con t outpatient rx to maintain abstinence 37

38 Withdrawal Outcomes >50% relapse Problem > opioid withdrawal Problem = medical & psychosocial Compared to MM, detox alone results in: 2x + urine drug test at delivery 5x days in trt 6 fewer OB appts No diff in NAS or birth outcomes 38

39 Buprenorphine Maintenance 2002 approved rx for non-preg opioid depend Partial opioid agonist Enhanced safety profile T ½ = 37 hrs Office-based 39

40 Buprenorphine Maintenance Must become qualified to prescribe Potential advantages Similar outcomes as MM severity NAS shorter NICU stays and less morphine drops required to tx 40
