ℹ️🧪 We are releasing the first of two drug supply updates today for the month of September. The first update features two samples tested from Providence. Both samples contained percocets; one in a blue 30 pill, the other in a baggie.

My latest essay "Talking History" is out in @JournalGIM today. So often the onus and blame are placed on people with addiction, not on the systems that fail to support them. By talking to patients about history, I try to change that.

New evidence that forced substance use treatment (like other forms of incarceration) causes sharply elevated risk of death post-release, largely from overdose.

@DrPoorman The ridiculous thing is that the PA was denied because Belbuca is "not approved for pain"... Belbuca is not approved for OUD so...not approved for anything?

[W Li, MD (she/her) @wli1016]

@DrPoorman I just had a PA for buprenorphine (Belbuca) denied because it wasn't covered for pain. But insurance has been paying for oxycodone for years...

I hope all the friends and families of my patients are getting their boosters.

@DrSarahWakeman I was recently hospitalized for 7d myself. Despite fully understanding the hospital work flow, my own medical limitations, and COVID restrictions, I still felt totally caged. Our pts, regardless of substance use hx, are humans. Arbitrary policing of pts is cruelty, NOT medicine.

@HarkerDavid The section on Coronavirus is mildly out of date anyway!

Moving next week and finally throwing out this dear dear part of my heart and soul. Looks like some of my multicolored notes need some updating though... #medstudentlife #finallyanattending

@tenuredaddict I have this conversation all the time! It's really important to talk about the context of how and when someone has tried Suboxone.
