Opioid Agonist Maintenance Treatment Outcomes—The Optimus International Consensus Towards Evidence-Based and Patient-Centred Care, an Interim Report
Non-medical opioid use is a major public health concern causing high mortality.

We report the rationale and study protocol for, and preliminary results of, an ongoing internatio…
