NFL Vet Ryan O'Callaghan, Dan Schneider Talk Opioids Sept. 12

Northwestern University opioid-addiction expert Sterling Elliott will moderate a panel discussion on the opioid epidemic at the Sept. 12 annual meeting of the Illinois Council of Health System Pharmacists.

The event will feature former NFL player and recovering drug addict Ryan O'Callaghan, whose fears of being outed as a closeted gay man and a shoulder injury led him to a drug addiction and planned suicide; and pharmacist and activist Dan Schneider, the focus of the 2020 Netflix docuseries, "The Pharmacist."
