Abstract: | Background Opioid overdose in Russia is a problem that has grown more severe as heroin abuse expanded over the past decade, yet few studies
have explored it in detail. In order to gain a clearer understanding of the situation, 60 drug users, both in and out of drug
treatment in St. Petersburg, were interviewed concerning their overdose experience and knowledge about overdose recognition
and prevention. |
