OM DENNE EPISODE
In this episode, I explore how long-acting injectable medications, like Vivitrol, Sublocade, and Brixadi, are reshaping treatment for opioid use disorder by reducing daily dosing burdens and improving treatment adherence. I review evidence on their clinical effectiveness, patient experiences, and the practical and ethical considerations involved in implementing these medications in both community and carceral settings.
