Individuals and communities in BC are facing an increased risk of stimulant-related harms. Stimulant use can cause significant harms on its own, including negative cardiac and mental health outcomes. In the context of the unregulated drug supply, toxic drug poisonings can occur due to contamination of stimulants with opioids and other substances.
In this episode of Addiction Practice Pod, Dr. Marcus Greatheart and David Ball talk with addiction psychiatrist Dr. Julius Elefante about harm reduction and treatment for stimulant use disorder. We also hear from the executive director of UNDU, Katt Cadieux, on the importance of trusting your patient and building a care plan based on their lived experience.
