Abstract : (Abstracted from Addict Behav Rep 2020;12:100315) The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology recommends medically assisted treatment (MAT) for the management of women who misuse opioids during pregnancy. Medically assisted treatment allows pregnant women to use opioids at doses that lessen the euphoric effect, minimize withdrawal symptoms, and curb cravings.
