Grant Activity:
Implementation of time-limited parenteral hydromorphone in people with treatment-resistant injecting opioid use disorder: Feasibility, acceptability, and cost
Purpose:

This project recruits long-term opioid dependent people who persist in injecting opioids despite access to treatment. It involves prescribing hydromorphone (a drug similar to heroin) to be injected daily under supervision, and co-prescribing oral methadone; with the aim, over two years, of stabilising and transferring participants to oral methadone only. It is conducted in an Australian methadone clinic, a potential setting for widespread access to this treatment.
