Description
This 4-part virtual learning collaborative will explore the use of injectable extended-release forms of Buprenorphine for the treatment OUD, with an emphasis on Sublocade due to it being on the market longer. This practical series will explore the nuts and bolts of getting people started on extended-release injectable buprenorphine, clinical considerations around using it for maintenance treatment, and using it in unique clinical situations such as pain, pregnancy, and adolescents. By the end of the course, our goal is that you will develop a level of expertise to confidently offer these medications as another treatment option for your patients with OUD.
