WEBINAR: Prescription Drug and Heroin Epidemic: A Public Health Response. National Network of Libraries of Medicine, Southeastern/Atlantic Region. July 12, 2018. "This one-hour webinar examines the history behind the U.S. opiate crisis and current epidemiology, including variations by region and state. The second half of the presentation describes some of the evidence-based efforts available for treating opiate use disorders, and efforts being implemented to prevent future use. It concludes with promising examples being implemented in other countries and a discussion of some of the barriers associated with implementing similar approaches in the U.S."

Advancing Therapeutic Development for Pain and Opioid Use Disorders Through Public-Private Partnerships
"Chronic pain is one of the most prevalent, costly, and disabling health conditions in the United States. Estimates show that more than 11 percent of the American population suffer from chronic pain, yet the federal pain research investment has been minimal. In parallel with a gradual increased recognition of the problems of treating chronic pain, the opioid epidemic has emerged as a growing public health emergency. The intersection of these two crises lies in the fact that an unintended consequence of treating pain has been an increasing number of opioid prescriptions and diversion of drugs for illicit purposes.

In May 2017, the National Institutes of Health (NIH), and the National Institute on Drug Abuse announced a public–private partnership to develop solutions to the opioid crisis and cut in half the time it takes to develop non-addictive analgesics. To advance the planning of NIH’s anticipated public–private partnerships, the National Academies’ Forum on Neuroscience and Nervous Systems Disorders hosted a public workshop that brought together a diverse group of stakeholders from academia, federal agencies, advocacy organizations and companies developing therapeutics for pain and opioid use disorders. Participants discussed potential strategies to accelerate development of non-addictive pain medications and treatments for opioid use disorders. This publication summarizes the presentations and discussions from the workshop."
