Non-medical opioid use and sources of opioids among pregnant and non-pregnant reproductive-aged women.
This study characterized non-medical use (NMU) of prescription opioids among reproductive-age U.S. women, with a focus on pregnancy status. Nearly 1 percent of pregnant women and 2.3 percent of non-pregnant reproductive-age women reported opioid NMU in the past 30 days. Forty-six percent of pregnant women identified a doctor as their source compared with 27.6 percent of non-pregnant women reporting NMU.
