摘要
Opioid misuse is a massive public health crisis that is impacting women. In 2019, in the USA, 15,000 women fatally overdosed from opioids. Medication for opioid use disorder (MOUD) is an effective treatment that facilitates withdrawal management which promotes recovery of opioid use disorder. Yet, the stigma associated with OUD and MOUD as a treatment keeps some women with OUD from seeking treatment. The present study analyzed focus group data to understand experiences of stigma among women with opioid OUD who were receiving MOUD. Results indicated three themes: (1) "MOUD is still a drug," (2) Responses in coping with MOUD stigma, and (3) The value of peer support in MOUD treatment. Treatment considerations for women using MOUD include psychoeducation for family members and strategies to further incorporate peer support into MOUD treatment.
