Examining prevalence and correlates of smoking opioids in British Columbia: opioids are more often smoked than injected

Factors significantly associated with smoking opioids were: living in a small community, being a woman, age under 30 or 30–39 compared to age ≥ 50, using drugs alone, and owning a take-home naloxone kit. Reported use of methamphetamines within the past 3 days was strongly associated with smoking opioids.
