Trends in Opioid Misuse Among Individuals Aged 12 to 21 Years in the US, in JAMA Network Open
key takeaway: "The findings of this cross-sectional study of US youths and young adults suggest that high school–aged individuals consistently misused fewer opioids in later pseudocohorts overall and by sex. Sex differences in opioid rates also diminished in later pseudocohorts. A decrease in drug availability and general exposure to the harms of opioid use could be contributing to these findings."
