Clinical Conversations: MOUD on the Move: The Hospital Pharmacist's Role in the Opioid Use Disorder Continuum of Care

Patients with opioid use disorder (OUD) present to the hospital setting for a variety of reasons, so emergency and inpatient pharmacists increasingly need to have a working knowledge of OUD, its treatment modalities, and other factors that affect the management of these patients. This podcast will discuss aspects of care from presentation to discharge, dispel common misconceptions about the management of OUD and acute pain, and promote a standardized approach to care of an often-marginalized population of patients. The information presented during the podcast reflects solely the opinions of the presenter. The information and materials are not, and are not intended as, a comprehensive source of drug information on this topic.
