This week's topic is one on which everyone has an opinion: the prescription drug epidemic in America. Ross is joined by Praveen Kambam, M.D., a Los Angeles physician specializing in Forensic, Child and Adolescent, and Adult Psychiatry. Dr. Kambam will share his thoughts on what patients should be on the lookout for, how to talk to their doctor about prescription drugs, and key factors in when to prescribe vs when not to. He and Ross will also discuss the impact of the prescription drug crisis on addiction treatment, and how those in recovery can better navigate through the truths and lies about these substances.
