L’objectif
This study sought to examine OAT retention and discontinuation among adolescents and young adults.
Constatations/points à retenir
Despite finding that OAT retention was associated with significant reductions in daily illicit opioid use, no significant improvements in other key indicators were observed. This underscores the importance of providing supports alongside OAT to improve treatment outcomes among adolescents and young adults.
