  1. Abbreviations: FTS, fentanyl test strip. CI; confidence interval
  2. aCoefficients of FTS use indicator. Positive values indicate that FTS users perform the behavior more often than non-FTS users
  3. bAdjusted models include indicators for site, race/ethnicity, age, gender, drug of choice, indicator of polysubstance use, times used per day, and lifetime overdose count
