This study examined factors affecting adherence to Suboxone treatment among 50 African American patients through a retrospective chart review. The results showed significantly negative correlations between adherence and concurrent use of opioids, cocaine, and alcohol. Surprisingly, PTSD showed a positive correlation with adherence, contradicting other studies. No correlation was found between adherence and unemployment. The study concluded that while mental health issues and unemployment may impact adherence, the small sample size likely influenced the results. Larger studies are still needed to fully understand factors affecting Suboxone adherence in minority groups.
