5 OPSC s 54th Annual Convention and Exposition Syllabus 397

6 Opioid Addiction- A Disease? Opioid dependence is a physical addiction to prescription painkillers and heroin. It affects many people in the US more so than that of addiction to cocaine or methamphetamine. In 2013 there were nearly 2.4 million reports of people that had abused or were dependent on opioids or prescription painkillers. OPSC s 54th Annual Convention and Exposition Syllabus 398

13 Screen Drug Abuse Screening Test or DAST-10 OPSC s 54th Annual Convention and Exposition Syllabus 405

14 Screen Continued Discuss opioid addiction with your patients as you would any other medical condition without judgment. Because of the stigma of addiction this can be a very difficult conversation for the patient but vitally important. Let the patient know it is a chronic medical condition with available treatments such as counseling, in-patient treatment, and in-office treatment one-on-one with a physician. Convey hopefulness- your patient is not alone OPSC s 54th Annual Convention and Exposition Syllabus 406

15 Diagnose The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) lists the criteria to diagnose opioid addiction by identifying problematic patterns of behavior This can help you specify the extent of the opioid addiction in your patients life and the aspects of their lives being hindered by their opioid addiction.

18 Treatment Types Continued Twelve Step Programs- based on a set of guiding principles thst outline a course of action to work towards recovery In-Office Medication-Assisted Treatmentprescription medications are used to help suppress withdrawal symptoms and decrease cravings, along with counseling and other support. OPSC s 54th Annual Convention and Exposition Syllabus 410

19 OPSC s 54th Annual Convention and Exposition Syllabus 411

20 Buprenorphine One type of medication-assisted treatment used alongside counseling and psychosocial support is buprenorphine. Buprenorphine allows for less euphoria and physical dependence, has a lower potential for misuse and has a relatively mild withdrawal profile. It is used to suppress symptoms of opioid withdrawal, decrease cravings for opioids, and block the effects of other opioids. OPSC s 54th Annual Convention and Exposition Syllabus 412

21 Buprenorphine Continued Different name brands of buprenorphine include Subutex, Suboxone, and Zubsolv. This medication is used to treat opioid addiction in the privacy of the physicain s office. It can be dispensed for take-home use of prescription OPSC s 54th Annual Convention and Exposition Syllabus 413

22 Naloxone A special narcotic drug that reverses the effects of other narcotic medicines used to treat pain or used during surgery. Also can be used to treat narcotic drug overdose. This can be used in combination with buprenorphine to treat opiate addiction. Brands that use the dual agent drug are Suboxone and Zubsolv. OPSC s 54th Annual Convention and Exposition Syllabus 414

23 Who can Prescribe Buprenorphine? Any physician with a special X number issed by the DEA. Doctors who wish to prescribe buprenorphine for opioid addiction must take an 8-hour class on addiction treatment and apply for the special DEA #. OPSC s 54th Annual Convention and Exposition Syllabus 415
