OTEP Clinical Case Webinars: Life after Sublocade: Supporting Patients Through the Change Ahead

Print

Join University of Sydney on 18 August at 6pm for our next OTEP Clinical Case Webinar.

With Sublocade scheduled to exit the Australian market in December 2026, clinicians need to prepare for the safe transition of patients to alternative treatment options. This expert-led webinar will explore the clinical and operational implications of Sublocade’s discontinuation in NSW and provide practical guidance on key clinical considerations, patient transition planning, and strategies to maintain safe, effective, and uninterrupted continuity of care.

Questions can be submitted in advance during registration. Live Q&A time permitting.

Leading the session is Dr Hester Wilson, Chief Addiction Medicine Specialist for NSW Ministry of Health, Clinical Director for Murrumbidgee Drug and Alcohol Service for Murrumbidgee Local Health District, chair of the RACGP Addiction Special Interest Group, and a GP in private practice and Dr Jenny James, GP Specialist, VMO GP Drug Health Services, South Western Sydney LHD.

The webinars will be recorded and be made available on the OTEP website alongside relevant resources related to the topic. Whilst primarily aimed towards prescribers of OAT, we welcome other health professionals, including those in nursing and pharmacy, to join us in the conversation.

The OTEP and the Clinical Case Webinars are managed by the University of Sydney Specialty of Addiction Medicine with funding from the NSW Ministry of Health.
