Webinar. Treatment Considerations in the Age of Fentanyl
Fentanyl and other high-potency synthetic opioids are increasingly present in the U.S. drug supply. Healthcare systems, treatment providers, and justice systems are grappling with the physiological consequences of chronic fentanyl use and how its use may impact treatment.
Presenters will discuss practical clinical practice-based guidance on treating opioid use disorder in the age of fentanyl, the use of medications for opioid use disorder (MOUD) in the treatment of individuals using fentanyl, and other considerations and challenges. The free webinar from the Justice Community Opioid Innovation Network (JCOIN) at the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), in partnership with the American Academy of Addiction Psychiatry (AAAP), the Providers Clinical Support System (PCSS) and the Addiction Policy Forum.

Xylazine: What Does the Emergence of this New Contaminant Mean for People Who Use Drugs and Health Care Providers?
Throughout the past year, a substance called xylazine has been saturating the drug supply in many parts of the United States. Xylazine is a powerful sedative used in veterinary medicine, typically for larger animals like horses and cattle. It is not considered to be safe for humans. However, the drug has been found to be present in many instances of heroin, fentanyl, and cocaine overdose. (Ireta, USA, 17.02.2023)

Entzündliche Darmerkrankungen: Kann Cannabis das Sterberisiko senken?
Philadelphia – US-Patienten mit Morbus Crohn oder Colitis ulcerosa, die zur Behandlung anderer Erkrankungen Cannabis konsumierten, hatten in einer retrospektiven Studie, deren Ergebnisse in einem Poster auf der Tagung der „European Crohn's and Colitis Organisation“ in Kopenhagen vorgestellt wurden, ein niedrigeres Sterberisiko, und sie verursachten geringere Krankenkosten (Journal of Crohn's and Colitis 2023, DOI: 10.1093/ecco-jcc/jjac190.0962). Ein Beweis für eine günstige Wirkung von Cannabis ist dies jedoch nicht. (aerzteblatt.de, 06.03.2023)

Werden drogenkonsumierende Menschen stigmatisiert – insbesondere vom Fachpersonal?
Menschen mit Abhängigkeitserkrankungen sind zahlreichen Vorurteilen ausgesetzt. In einer Studie wurden Fachpersonen von Akutspitälern und Behörden sowie Patient:innen eines Ambulatoriums der Universitären Psychiatrischen Kliniken Basel befragt, wie Menschen mit einer Abhängigkeitserkrankung Stigmatisierung im Kontakt mit sozialen Institutionen, Krankenhäusern und Behörden wahrnehmen. Über 70 % der befragten Patient:innen fühlen sich aufgrund ihrer Abhängigkeitserkrankung stigmatisiert. Je mehr Betroffene Stigmatisierungen durch ihr psychosoziales Hilfesystem erfahren, desto weniger nehmen sie Unterstützungsangebote an.
