The video is a presentation on stimulant use disorders by the American Osteopathic Academy of Addiction Medicine. Dr. Gregory Landy provides an overview of various topics related to stimulant use disorders, specifically focusing on cocaine, amphetamines, methamphetamines, and synthetic cathinones commonly known as bath salts. He discusses the DSM-5 criteria for diagnosing stimulant use disorders and emphasizes the importance of at least two criteria being present within a 12-month period. Dr. Landy also explains the prevalence of these illicit drugs based on the 2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health, highlighting the decline in past-year cocaine use disorder and the increase in past-year methamphetamine use disorder. He also addresses the misuse of prescription stimulants, particularly among young adults. The presentation includes information about the health effects and mechanisms of action of these drugs, as well as evidence-based treatments such as motivational interviewing, contingency management, community reinforcement approach, and cognitive behavioral therapy. It is important to note that there are currently no FDA-approved medications for the treatment of stimulant use disorders.
