4th year student pharmacist representative for the CPA, Natalie Dziadosz, interviews Dr. Sterling Elliott on opioid stewardship. Dr. Elliott is a pharmacist who specializes in orthopedics. His work with post-operative pain has given him a specific view on how best to work with opioids in the community as pharmacy practice still faces issues with ongoing abuse, misuse, and recovery. This interview will cover how pharmacy can continue moving forward to help patients and providers best handle patients struggling with the opioid epidemic and better their communities.
