The problem of opioid addiction is growing in Ontario, primarily
associated with the use of pharmaceutical products rather than
heroin. For many Ontarians struggling with opioid dependence,
methadone maintenance is an effective treatment that could save
their lives. However, methadone has a unique pharmacological
profile that requires specialized knowledge and procedures to
ensure its safe use. Pharmacists are at the front line of ensuring
clients' safe and effective use of methadone. This guide
complements CAMH's comprehensive best-practice manual for
pharmacists, Methadone Maintenance: A Pharmacist's Guide to
Treatment, a required resource for all pharmacies dispensing
methadone in Ontario. This new book addresses issues beyond best
practice by the individual pharmacist, making a series of
recommendations related to interprofessional collaboration, the
pharmacy environment, education programs, accessibility of services
and research needs. As the most accessible member of the treatment
team, pharmacists are uniquely positioned to make a difference in
the care of MMT clients. This book envisions ways in which
professional organizations, educators, policy makers and
researchers, among others, may support individual pharmacists
working in a variety of practice settings in enhancing the care
they provide through MMT pharmacy services.
