In this podcast meant for all audiences, we answer: • Why is it so important to address the opioid crisis now? • Opioids have been around since the 1700s, but how did this become a crisis situation? • How do opioids work and why are they so addictive? • What are the resources available (from the federal government and others) to treat substance use concerns? • How has COVID-19 impacted opioid addiction in the U.S.? • What are some things people can do now if they are struggling with addiction, or know someone else who is?

In this podcast geared towards healthcare professionals, we answer: • Why is the opioid epidemic so important right now? • How has the NIH and other federal and state entities changed their approach to the opioid epidemic over the course of the last 1.5 years? • How has opioid use changed throughout the years? • What are the research areas that still need to be addressed? • What are some practical ways healthcare professionals can change their prescribing patterns and how they work with patients with opioid use dependence or disorder?
