Addiction Toxicology Case Conference - July 2020

Case 1: Ambulatory Detox During COVID-19
A 60-year-old administrator requests ambulatory detoxification for combined alcohol and sedative dependence during COVID19. He has several previous detoxification and treatment episodes that have required aggressive treatment regimens to get his withdrawal under control in the past.

Case 2: Kratom
A Professional Health Program refers a 35-year-old physician for a residential evaluation due to signs of impairment while at work. He reports daily use of kratom and requests medication management of acute withdrawal. After stabilization, he agrees to take a medication to prevent relapse. What are the considerations for treatment regimen and drug testing/monitoring?
