Fentanyl. Potent Synthetic Opioids. Changes in DEA opioid prescribing guidelines. The War on Drugs has failed repeatedly. Criminalizing whatever substance makes the headlines only creates more harm, pushes people to treat their pain with whatever they can get from the streets. 💔

Oregon's Medicaid population increased 13% between 2020 and 2022, with Measure 110 funding increasing healthcare access for people who use drugs. The prevalence of opioid use disorder rose a mere 5%. There isn't more "addiction." It's more visible and more acute.
If you are outraged that we are losing ~100,000 people a year due to the overdose crisis and our government funding punishment over aid, you should also be outraged that we have lost 30,000 Palestinian civilians in 6 months due to our government funding punishment over aid.

Me: “here’s a thing that has life or death consequences for people especially during a toxic drug crisis that is pretty non-controversial ie improve access/efficacy of bupe and methadone” Randos: “Here’s a glib reply to remind u most of us don’t give a fuck if u die”
@RyanMarino I had to pay a doctor cash for a few years to get subs. it really sucks to have chronic pain right now.
@RyanMarino Moreover, as a family medicine MAT provider, I’ve found that this work is some of the most rewarding I’ve done in FM. These are people who are trying to do better, and we as physicians need to level up to help them.
@RyanMarino My 23 y/o son started receiving the sublocade shot a few months ago. There is ONE doctor within 40 miles that will administer it. And to get on it we had to jump through hoops. Had I not been taking him and encouraging him, he would have likely given up.
@RyanMarino After the gabapentin ceased to work, I provided an article about Subutex and neuropathic pain. Subutex was a game changer, he went from bed and recliner to working in the yard and garden again after 5 years of immobility.
@RyanMarino Not to mention methadone for pain. It was awesome.
@RyanMarino Ugh sooooo many PCPs just don’t want to do it, some tell pts they can’t! It’s a massive barrier. Thankfully in RI, we have a buprenorphine hotline, so folks can get a rx, get connected to care, and actually get tx.
@RyanMarino Lawyers/Judges believe religion-based addiction treatment (12 step) is the gold standard. And most addicts only get treatment at the hands of the judiciary. With an over 90% failure. Can you imagine a cardiologist offering treatment with 10% success rate? #12Step
@RyanMarino Correct me if I am wrong, but when it comes to things that will help other living breathing humans in this country Not being able to access or receive help seems to be a rather common issue. But there is always money to build another prison or stadium or give corporate welfare
@RyanMarino Years ago, only one doctor covered by my insurance had the waiver to prescribe it and it was next to impossible to get in to see her.
Our Supreme Court is literally weighing at the present moment whether pregnant people can be turned away from ERs and forced to suffer preventably. Under such politicized conditions it’s no wonder other vulnerable, stigmatized groups aren’t receiving evidence based care, either.
