From @ofidjournal.bsky.social 🦠🫀

Patients with injection drug use-related #InfectiveEndocarditis who receive medications for #OpioidUseDisorder tend to be more likely to complete #antibiotic treatment and are at lower risk of mortality at 30 days.
MOUD Decreases Short-Term Mortality Risk After IDU-Related Infective Endocarditis
Initiating MOUD is associated with higher antibiotic completion and lower 30-day mortality in IDU-related IE.
