Opioid use and addiction in adolescents and young adults is a health problem of
epidemic proportions, with devastating consequences for youth and their families.
Opioid overdose is a life-threatening emergency that should be treated with
naloxone, and respiratory support if necessary. Overdose should always be an
opportunity to initiate addiction treatment. Detoxification is often a necessary,
but never sufficient, component of treatment for OUDs. Treatment for OUDs is
effective but treatment capacity is alarmingly limited and under-developed.
Emerging consensus supports the incorporation of relapse prevention medications
such as buprenorphine and extended release naltrexone into comprehensive
psychosocial treatment including counseling and family involvement.
