Activity Dates: 10/07/2022 - 10/07/2025
If you are a pharmacist, nurse practitioner or other healthcare professional involved in the comprehensive medication management of psychiatric patients, we invite you to participate in this online course.
Substance use disorders and co-occurring eating disorders (ED) may be overlooked. A past CPNP presentation on eating disorders cited 10 to 25% of patients with ED have a co-occurring SUD. SAMHSA reports a National Comorbidity survey of almost 3000 patients in 2011 that cited rates of any SUD ranging from 23 to 36.8% across all three eating disorders. Some references cite as high as high as 50% of individuals with ED have misused alcohol or illicit drugs, which is 5 times higher than the general population. For those pharmacists practicing in the SUD space Up to 35% of individuals who abused or were dependent on alcohol or other drugs have also had eating disorders, a rate 11 times greater than the general population.
The substances most frequently misused by individuals with eating disorders or with sub-clinical symptoms include alcohol, laxatives, emetics, diuretics, amphetamines, heroin, and cocaine. Eating disorders and substance use disorders share a number of common risk factors, including brain chemistry, family history, low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, and social pressures. Other shared characteristics include compulsive behavior, social isolation, and risk for suicide.
