Neonatal Abstinence Syndrome (NAS) has skyrocketed in recent years as a result of the opioid epidemic plaguing this country. Since 2000, the number of babies affected by NAS has increased nearly 5-fold. Every 25 minutes a baby is born suffering from opioid withdrawal, often prematurely with developmental problems and potential long-term adverse effects including cognitive impairment. Approximately ...
