          L’objectif
Describing substance use practices and elucidating correlates of concurrent use can inform harm reduction service provision and prevent overdose events.
Constatations/points à retenir
Individuals who used stimulants and opioids concurrently tend to be younger, without paid work or housing. They were engaged in harm reduction and treatment services, yet used illicit drugs with unknown concentration daily. Improving access to age-appropriate services and expanding the availability of both legal and regulated stimulants and opioids may further reduce harms of concurrent use.
