Objective
By the end of this didactic, you will be able to:
Connect endogenous mechanisms to clinical observations
Understand OUD as a disease state
Discuss treatment options for MOUD including adverse effects and
contraindications.
Opioid effects on DA and NE
systems
Peptide families: endorphin, enkephalin, dynorphins
Receptors: Mu, Delta, Kappa
Mu most robust for clinically active opioids
Exogenous opioids impact the same system(s)
Down stream effects on dopamine (DA) and Norepinephrine (NE)

ADDICTION AS A DISEASE
MODEL
 
 
 
 
 
ASAM Definition of Addiction
A primary, chronic disease of brain reward, motivation,
memory and related circuitry.
Dysfunction in these circuits leads to characteristic biological,
psychological, social, and spiritual manifestations.
This is reflected in an individual pathologically pursuing reward
and/or relief by substance use and other behaviors.

Opioid use D/O DSMV
• Remission Early 3-12mo, Sustained >12mo
•  Specifiers: maintenance therapy or
 
controlled environment
• Note: withdrawal and tolerance
Mild
2-3
Severe
>6
Moderate
4-5
SUD Criteria
Substance is often taken in larger amounts or over a longer
period than was intended.
There is a persistent desire or unsuccessful efforts to cut down or
control use.
A great deal of time is spent in activities necessary to obtain,
use, or recover from its effects.
Craving, or a strong desire or urge to use substance.
Recurrent substance use resulting in a failure to fulfill major role
obligations at work, school, or home.
Withdrawal
Tolerance
SUD Criteria
Continued substance use despite having persistent or
recurrent social or interpersonal problems caused or
exacerbated by the effects of the substance.
Important social, occupational, or recreational activities are
given up or reduced because of substance use.
Recurrent substance use in situations in which it is physically
hazardous.
Substance use is continued despite knowledge of having a
persistent or recurrent physical or psychological problem that
is likely to have been caused or exacerbated by the
substance.
Opioid Use D/O Treatment
Behavioral interventions have poor
outcomes
Controlled environment
Medication assisted detoxification poor
outcomes
N.A.
These forms of treatment or lack of, have
higher associated risk or relapse, OD,
recidivism, crime, infection, death

>90% of patients relapse within 2 months of taper
95% of methadone patients will relapse within 1 year after

Adverse Effects and
Contraindications
Hepatic-Hepatitis and Decreased Function (monitor LFTS)
Cardiac- QTC prolongation
CNS-sedative effects or paradoxical effects
GI- constipation and secondary morbidity
Side Effects and Contraindications
Drug-Drug interactions (i.e. benzodiazepines)
QTC prolongation (i.e. antihistamines, antidepressants, 
antibiotics
, antifungals)
Inhibition (i.e. Seroquel)
Induction (i.e. Dilantin)
Switching Classes of FDA
approved treatments
Naltrexone
Buprenorphine
Methadone (reduced efficacy initially)
No risk of precipitating withdrawal
Switching Classes of FDA
approved treatments

Addiction and Crime
 
US has highest incarceration rate
Costly 1.7 trillion 
(Anderson, 2011)
1/100 adults may be incarcerated in life time, higher for minorities 
(Warren,
2008)
 
SUD and crime highly correlated 50% cases 
(Nunn 2009)
Nearly 1/4 of inmates in DOC report heroin use 
(Karberg 2016)
OUD correlated with other poor outcomes such as HIV transmission,
crime, recidivism, opioid toxicities and deaths 
(Rudd 2016)
Risk of OD 13x greater for parolees within first 2 weeks after release
In England, risk documented 29x higher than those without OUD
(Binswanger, 2013, (Merrall, 2010)
 
 
(Binswanger, 2013)
Intervention Points
Contact with EMS services including Law Enforcement
Drug Court
Pretrial Services
Intervention Points
Intra system programs and treatment
Release and post incarceration services
UNM Jail Diversion Services, JDS
Treatment
 
MOUDs reduce drug use and criminality 
(Perry 2014)
MOUDs reduce post release drug use and crime 
(Schwartz 2017)
Benefits extend out 12months following release after incarceration
according to RCT 
(Kinlock 2009)
Despite data, MOUDs are rarely implemented in the criminal justice
system
 
 
Other treatment modalities
Naloxone rescue kit distribution upon d/c
Naltrexone and Vivitrol
Suboxone
12 step groups
Individual and Group Counseling

This presentation delves into the complexities of Opioid Use Disorder (OUD), discussing its impact on the neuroendocrine system, treatment options, including Medications for Opioid Use Disorder (MOUD), and special populations. The objective is to connect endogenous mechanisms to clinical observations, view OUD as a disease state, and explore various treatment methods along with their adverse effects and contraindications. Insights into the effects on dopamine and norepinephrine systems are provided, aiding in comprehending the significance of addressing OUD. Key slides highlight pertinent information from past studies, reinforcing the urgency of understanding and managing OUD effectively.
