No FDA-approved medications for methamphetamine (MA) use disorder (MUD) are available. Suvorexant (SUVO), a dual orexin receptor antagonist that is FDA approved for insomnia treatment, reduces MA self-administration and MA-induced reinstatement responding in preclinical studies. SUVO may also reduce MA use by targeting substance use risk factors, including insomnia, stress, cue reactivity, and craving.

The introduction of faricimab, a drug targeting both vascular endothelial growth factor-A (VEGF-A) and angiopoietin-2, has enabled the implementation of the highly effective dual inhibition strategy in real clinical practice for patients with neovascular age-related macular degeneration (nAMD) and diabetic macular edema (DME), both previously treated with intravitreal injections and newly diagnosed. This article presents a series of 11 clinical cases involving patients with nAMD and DME who received loading doses of faricimab and continued ophthalmological observation. Among them, three patients with nAMD and two with DME were treatment-naïve, while the others were switched from alternative therapies to faricimab.

In this article we consider the theoretical and methodological implications of Deleuzian fabulation for research on recovery from drugs and alcohol as an alternative way of making and doing methods in sociology. The article draws on data produced as part of an ongoing interdisciplinary research collaboration, begun in 2019, with the visual artist and filmmaker Melanie Manchot, social scientists Nicole Vitellone and Lena Theodoropoulou, and people in recovery from drugs and alcohol engaged in the production of Manchot's first feature film STEPHEN. This project attends to the methodological practice of filmmaking as a way of thinking with and alongside colleagues from divergent disciplines about the role of methods, concepts and practices for confronting and resisting processes of stigmatisation.
