Split dosing methadone can be a very effective way to stabilize patients with chronic pain on top of OUD, pregnancy, or significant side effects with higher doses of methadone. Cheers to Hannan Braun, MD for spearheading! Hannan Braun Methadone Clinic Abolition Collective (MCAC)

This is going to be an awesome conference. Save the date now!!! Follow National Coalition to Liberate Methadone + listen to the National Survivors Union (NSU, formerly USU) podcast Naturally Noncompliant open.spotify.com/show/0tDQN6H8f… as an enraging primer about the current methadone system.
Listen to me chat about substance use and HIV on the American Academy of HIV Medicine podcast! (I've long been told I have a great face for radio.) Denver Health
Do you love history? Want to know the story behind one of the two women who discovered that methadone could help stabilize people away from illicit opiates? This is a great series on Dr. Marie Nyswander. #freemethadone @asam
