What is methadone treatment? While steeped in myth and fear, methadone maintenance treatment for heroin and other opiate addiction is known to be effective, safe, and inexpensive. Most clinicians, although having little training in or exposure to opiate replacement therapy, encounter patients in their practice who are engaged in such treatment.
Medical librarians can play a key role in increasing clinician knowledge of methadone maintenance by providing access and guidance to quality, evidence-based resources. Join us for the monthly Twitter chat of the MLA Health Disparities SIG: Wednesday, September 3, 8 :00 PM Eastern Time.
Our chats, using the hashtag #mladisparities, are held on the first Wednesday of the month. Come for all or part of the one hour discussion.
