Abstinence/ Changes in Substance Use
Frequency of opioid use, stimulant, and/or other substance use (e.g., discordant with prescribed usage) or other substances (e.g., stimulants, other non-opioid illicit drugs) in the past 30-day will be assessed by items from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) questionnaire.
