Co-occurring Opioid and Stimulant Use Disorders: Treatment and Management Approaches
People who use opioids and stimulants concurrently have over twice the risk of fatal overdose compared to individuals who use opioids only, according to a 2022 study. Despite the increased risk of overdose bolstered by the ever-changing and adulterated drug supply, research indicates a lack of training that specifically addresses treating and managing co-occurring opioid and stimulant use disorders.
This session will equip behavioral health treatment providers and organizations with the tools necessary to effectively engage and provide quality, team-based care and services to clients with co-occurring opioid and stimulant use disorders to improve health outcomes, reduce overdose risk and support long-term recovery.
