We just don't have the space for it: Geographies of survival and spatial triage in overdose prevention sites

Michelle Olding et al.

Summary: This study examines the role of Overdose Prevention Sites (OPS) in the survival of vulnerably housed people who use drugs (PWUD) in Vancouver, Canada. OPS serve as low-barrier spaces where PWUD can use drugs under supervision. Apart from preventing overdose deaths, OPS also provide important survival resources for vulnerably housed PWUD. The study highlights the negotiation of multiple uses of OPS and the operational challenges faced, suggesting the need for complementary structural changes and service innovations.

High levels of interest in access to free safer smoking equipment to reduce injection frequency among people who inject drugs in Seattle, Washington

Molly C. Reid et al.

Summary: The study finds that access to free safer smoking equipment is limited, but many participants are interested in obtaining it and believe that it may decrease their frequency of injection. Therefore, safer smoking equipment is an important harm reduction strategy that should be provided to individuals at risk of opioid and stimulant injection.

A lotta people switched playing hard ball to playing Russian roulette : Experiences with rising overdose incidence caused by drug supply changes during the COVID-19 pandemic in the San Diego-Tijuana border metroplex

C. J. Valasek et al.

Summary: This study investigated overdose experiences and changes in drug supply among drug users in the US-Mexico border region. The study found that a considerable proportion of drug users in the region had experienced overdose, with an increase in overdose incidents due to the rise of fentanyl in local drug supplies. Meanwhile, there was a general trend among drug users to shift from injecting heroin to smoking fentanyl. The primary concerns of drug users were consistent access to a safe and potent drug supply and naloxone.

The state of science on including inhalation within supervised consumption services: A scoping review of academic and grey literature

Nicole D. Gehring et al.

Summary: Internationally, supervised consumption services (SCS) that include drug inhalation have shown high feasibility and positive outcomes, such as improved health and safety of people who use drugs and decreased public drug use. However, more comprehensive and systematic evaluations are needed to include other forms of non-injection drug use within SCS.

Concurrent use of opioids and stimulants and risk of fatal overdose: A cohort study

Heather Palis et al.

Summary: This study examined the association between stimulant use and overdose mortality. The results showed that people who used both opioids and stimulants had more than twice the hazard of fatal overdose compared to those who used opioids only. Furthermore, the hazard of death increased over time among individuals who used both opioids and stimulants.

Transition from injecting opioids to smoking fentanyl in San Francisco, California

Alex H. Kral et al.

Summary: Between 2018 and 2020, there was a notable shift among PWID in San Francisco from injecting black tar heroin to smoking fentanyl, resulting in a significant decrease in injection frequency and opioid injection rate. The number of days smoking fentanyl was associated with fewer injections. Qualitative interviews revealed that PWID switched to smoking fentanyl due to difficulties accessing veins and experienced benefits such as improved health and reduced stigma.

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

Stephanie Parent et al.

Summary: The study identified important factors associated with smoking opioids, including recent use of methamphetamines, younger age, living in smaller communities, being female, using drugs alone, and owning a take-home naloxone kit. These findings suggest targeted harm reduction strategies, education on safer smoking practices, advocacy for supervised consumption sites, and providing a regulated supply of opioids that can be smoked to better address the overdose crisis.

Crystal methamphetamine use in British Columbia, Canada: A cross-sectional study of people who access harm reduction services

Kristi Papamihali et al.

Summary: Increased crystal meth use in North America and BC has led to a significant presence of methamphetamines in illicit drug toxicity deaths. A survey found that crystal meth was the most commonly used substance among harm reduction clients in BC in 2018 and 2019, often used concurrently with opioids. Comparing self-reported crystal meth use to urine samples demonstrated high validity of self-reports. Understanding changing substance use patterns will be crucial in tailoring harm reduction and substance use services for crystal meth users.
