Opioids

The Canadian Paediatric Society recommends that babies with opioid withdrawal should stay with their moms.

A new study says that ibuprofen can relieve pain just as well as morphine for some surgeries. And it doesn’t come with all the risks.

Babies born to opioid-dependent mothers are typically whisked away to intensive care units and given morphine. But an innovative program is seeing shocking results with far simpler treatment. What these babies need most, it turns out, is their moms.
