Format: Video

Speaker: Lydia Bartholow, DNP, PMHNP  This workshop is most effective if you have participated in part A; it covers the core botanical medicines for the management of withdrawal effects, as well as cravings for substances of misuse. We examine real-life scenarios in working with people with substance use disorders in a homeless health care clinic and review the barriers and benefits to utilization of herb therapies for use disorders. This workshop also covers common allopathic medications for opioid and alcohol use disorders and discusses herbs that can be used in conjunction with these pharmaceuticals.
