Factors associated with methadone maintenance therapy discontinuation among people who inject drugs.

Text

In this study, 22% of PWUD self-reported MMT discontinuation in the last six months. We identified several potentially modifiable social-structural factors that were associated with MMT discontinuation, including recent homelessness, recent incarceration, and not receiving income assistance. Frequent (i.e. daily) heroin injection use and prescription opioid use were also associated with MMT discontinuation.
