Stimulant use disorder diagnosis and opioid agonist treatment dispensation following release from prison: a cohort study

There is a critical need to scale up and adapt opioid agonist treatment and ancillary harm reduction, and treatment services to reach people released from prison who have concurrent stimulant use disorder and mental illness diagnoses.
