Mitchell, C. orcid.org/0000-0002-4790-0095 (2019) Commentary on Grischott et al. (2019): Is the rising incidence of pulmonary disease among opioid‐dependent patients an unintended consequence of inhalation of toxic substances? Addiction, 114 (5). pp. 877-878. ISSN 0965-2140
Abstract
Since the 1990s, there has been a shift from intravenous to inhaled use of illicit substances alongside a harm- minimisation policy change to promote ‘safer’ inhaled use. Interventions to legitimise the switch are of interest and may be linked to incident respiratory disease, a consequence which must now be addressed.
