Our 2022 study on uptake of slow-release oral morphine as an option for opioid agonist treatment (medication for opioid use disorder) is now freely available on PubMedCentral

Half of people who declined buprenorphine or methadone, went on to start SROM

Unfortunately people w/ opioid use disorder who are incarcerated in Nova Scotia's provincial jails are STILL not able to start life-saving opioid agonist treatment (methadone/buprenorphine/SROM) while incarcerated

Anyone know Canadian legal precedent that should enable access?
