Updated on 19 February 2024

Summary

While it is known that both men and women use opioids and are at risk of opioid use disorder (OUD), there is little data that investigates the gender differences with medication assisted treatment (MAT) therapies. Data is lacking regarding gender differences in baseline characteristics and diagnoses prior to MAT, and outcomes following MAT initiation. Women and men may have different factors leading to opioid use disorder, as well as varying MAT management. It is hypothesized that there is a gender disparity between men and women who are referred to SUDRP, and in the MAT therapies prescribed and the associated outcomes. The objectives are to assess gender differences in referrals to SUDRP, medications prescribed for MAT, and outcomes of OUD.
