L’objectif
We defined, estimated, and analyzed national polysubstance use patterns among people who misuse opioids (PWMO).
Constatations/points à retenir
We identified clusters of high-risk polydrug use. The largest binary cluster (37%) included misuse of prescription opioids and use of alcohol. In terms of frequency of use, the largest cluster among people who misuse opioids who used multiple substances (almost 40%) misused prescription pain relievers, alcohol, and marijuana infrequently.
