Beyond Opioids: Other Drugs of Concern https://kcls.bibliocommons.com/events/60a2b5ac2346ceb5183f80bc

Wednesday, June 23, 2021 from 6-7:30pm - virtual event presented by the Washington Poison Center

The opioid epidemic and opioid/opiate drugs receive significant press, and are great cause for concern. There are many other drugs, however, that are frequently misused and can result in harm. 

Join two Washington Poison Center pharmacists as they cover the common “drugs of abuse” they respond to in our Poison Helpline call center. 

Discuss over-the-counter medications, stimulants, cold/cough preparations, kratom and more, as well as the common scenarios the call center encounters with these substances. 

Bring your questions, and leave with increased awareness of various drugs of concern and the strategies to prevent or reduce harm from them.
