Clinical practice guidelines are used in health care as an educational tool to improve patient care as a potential solution to reduce inappropriate variations in care. Opioid prescribing guidelines provide clear and comprehensive, evidence-based recommendations incorporating current information and practices for practitioners. This activity will examine the scope, impact, key statistics and factors contributing to the opioid crisis and highlight the current recommended opioid prescribing guidelines, their challenges and the role of state prescription drug monitoring programs (PDMP). Strategies to aid in implementing the opioid prescribing guidelines and to mitigate the opioid crisis will also be discussed.

This educational webcast is designed to enhance primary care providers’ competency in managing headaches with a focus on evidence-based approaches. Participants will engage in a comprehensive review of migraine pathophysiology to better recognize and differentiate migraine symptoms. The session will examine traditional therapies for migraine, both acute and preventive, and introduce cutting-edge anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) targeted therapies. It will compare the efficacy and application of these treatments, enabling informed decision-making in clinical practice. The program will also explore the application of anti-CGRP therapies beyond migraines, considering their role in treating a variety of headache and facial-pain conditions.
