    CME Available: 1.5 AOA Category 1-A credits 1.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™ The goal of this series is to provide osteopathic primary care clinicians, with evidence-based, multidisciplinary strategies to improve knowledge and competence of pain management with non-pharmacologic and non-opioid therapies and the methodology to safely integrate opioids into treatment regimens to mitigate risks of opioid use disorder while addressing current barriers to optimal management. • State the role of both prescription and illicit opioids within osteopathic care. Discover the appropriate circumstances for prescribing full agonist opioids for chronic pain, guided by osteopathic philosophy. • Analyze case studies to identify opportunities for using Buprenorphine and Methadone in the treatment of chronic pain or Opioid Use Disorder (OUD). • Evaluate the skills in early detection of OUD by learning tools and techniques for assessment. • Assess the risk/benefit profiles of starting, stopping, or modifying opioid prescriptions for pain management. • Develop tailored treatment plans for patients with pain or OUD to include the significance of continuous management and support and incorporate a range of treatment options such as medication-assisted treatment, behavioral therapies, and support services.
