Unhealthy substance use and substance use disorders remain major public health challenges in the United States. As evidence supporting medications for opioid use disorder continues to grow, pharmacists are playing an increasingly important role in managing substance use disorders, particularly by bridging primary care gaps in rural communities and healthcare deserts. This podcast explores how pharmacists are expanding access to care, leveraging telemedicine, collaborating across healthcare teams, and improving public health outcomes.
