Neues Schulungsangebot von Hexal im Video-Blog-Format: Was gilt es beim Ausfüllen eines BtM-Rezeptes zu beachten? Wie lange behält ein BtM-Rezept seine Gültigkeit und wo muss dieses vor Verwendung aufbewahrt werden? Wie erfolgt die Vergabe von Substitutionsmitteln bei Sichtbezugspatienten und im Rahmen der Take-Home-Regelung? Welche Vorschriften gelten bei der Lieferung, Lagerung und Vernichtung von BtM?
Interview: „Ich habe nie Bedenken, eine Apotheke in die Substitutionsbehandlung einzubeziehen!“
Auf dem Land ist es für Substitutionspatienten schwierig, einen Substitutionsarzt in der Nähe des Wohnorts zu finden. Diese Erfahrung machte auch Dr. Werner Tauber. Als Oberarzt ist er am Standort Ansbach der Bezirkskliniken Mittelfranken u. a. für den stationären Drogenentzug und die ambulante Substitutionsgestützte Behandlung Opioidabhängiger zuständig. Um seine Patienten nach der Entlassung gut versorgt zu wissen, baute er ein Netzwerk aus 20 substituierenden Apotheken auf.

Australien. Impacts of COVID-19 and associated restrictions on people who use illicit stimulants in New South Wales: Findings from the Ecstasy and Related Drugs Reporting System 2020
The COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions on travel and gathering have likely had major impacts on drug supply, use and harms and there have been significant challenges with delivery of drug treatment and harm reduction services. People who use drugs may also be at increased risk of COVID-19 transmission because of the social nature of drug procurement and use. There have been urgent calls for evidence regarding the experiences of people who use drugs during the COVID-19 pandemic to inform public health efforts. Recognising the critical need for information, the Ecstasy and Related Drugs Reporting System (EDRS) project has been adapted to collect important data on people’s experiences during COVID-19. As such, this bulletin represents findings from 103 interviews undertaken in Sydney, NSW between 13 May and 23 June 2020, as part of the EDRS.

UK. Prescription of alcohol in emergency homeless hotel accommodation during the COVID-19 lockdown
by Dr Emmert Roberts and Dr Emily Finch
During the COVID-19 lockdown in London, a number of people experiencing rough sleeping were temporarily housed in emergency hotel accommodation across the capital. As part of the city-wide substance misuse approach, individuals at risk of unplanned alcohol withdrawal were prescribed, provided with and purchased alcohol as a means of harm reduction. This allowed professionals to engage with individuals around their alcohol intake, provide education and advice on safe reduction regimens, and allowed time to build up relationships which we hope may have longer term impacts on individual drinking habits.

USA. Nora's Blog: Addressing the Unique Challenges of COVID-19 for People in Recovery
By Dr. Nora Volkow
September is Recovery Month, an occasion to focus on the needs of the millions of people in the U.S. living with a substance use disorder (SUD) as well as celebrate those who are trying or succeeding in putting drug use behind them. The stress and isolation of the COVID-19 pandemic are presenting enormous challenges for these individuals, but ultimately the altered realities of healthcare may create opportunities to reach more people with services and possibly even increase the reach of recovery support systems.

Opioide und andere Substanzabhängigkeiten erhöhen Erkrankungsrisiko an COVID-19
Bethesda/Maryland – Patienten mit einer Abhängigkeit von Alkohol, Tabak, Cannabis, Opioiden oder Kokain haben ein deutlich erhöhtes Risiko, im Fall einer Infektion mit SARS-CoV-2 an COVID-19 zu erkranken. Dies geht aus einer Analyse von Patientenakten in Molecular Psychiatry (2020; DOI: 10.1038/s41380-020-00880-7) hervor. (aerzteblatt.de, 15.09.2020)

Max-Planck-Wissenschaftler sehen Zusammenhang zwischen Grippe- und Coronainfektion – Impfung empfohlen
Berlin/Paris – Die Abnahme der COVID-19-Fälle im Frühling hängt möglicherweise nicht nur mit den Gegenmaßnahmen, sondern auch mit dem Ende der Grippesaison zusammen.
Zu diesem Schluss kommen Forschende am Max-Planck-Institut für Infektionsbiologie (MPIIB) in Berlin und am Institut Pasteur in Paris auf der Basis eines mathematischen Modells die ersten Monate der Coronapandemie in Europa. Danach haben Grippeerkrankungen die Coronaübertragung im Durchschnitt um das 2,5-fache erhöht. (aerzteblatt.de, 15.09.2020)
