OBJECTIVES: This study sought to explore the potential role of peer-led online communities to increase use of medications for opioid use disorder.
METHODS: From January through March 2020, participants with opioid use disorder and their family members/friends were recruited from paid Facebook ads; public health key stakeholders were recruited from referrals from the study team and opioid experts. Thirty participants from California were interviewed; 23 persons reporting opioid misuse, 3 family members/friends of persons misusing opioids, and 4 public health key stakeholders. We conducted semi-structured interviews asking about preferences, barriers and facilitators of treatment options for opioid use disorder, and perspectives around the use of digital/online communities. The categories of participants interviewed were each asked slightly different questions depending upon their role.
RESULTS: Results suggest that participants who misuse opioids (1) may prefer to engage in online communities rather than in-person meetings to discuss their opioid use, (2) generally prefer to receive opioid-related information from other patients with opioid use disorder and/or those in recovery rather than from health providers or other individuals, and (3) thought that an online community could be beneficial for helping address their opioid use.
CONCLUSION: Results suggest an openness and interest in a peer-led online community to discuss opioid use and treatment among people who misuse opioids.
