(Summit Pointe 57) Using Medications to Treat Opioid Use Disorder

An approach to opioid use disorder might, for some, seem a bit ponderous: Using medications as treatment for addiction to another medication.

But, as we learn in this episode, Medications for Opioid Use Disorder – sometimes called MOUD – can be very successful and perhaps life-saving.

Bronson’s Dr. Maureen Ford and Paul Bodenberg talk about what MOUD actually means, does and helps.
