Tackling the Opioid Crisis
We are developing safe and effective treatments for opioid use disorder and dependence. AphioTx is interested in working with pharmaceutical companies, governments, nonprofits, and investors to work towards tackling the opioid crisis by addressing use disorders on a global scale
The Opioid Crisis is Growing
In Canada, opioid-related deaths have increased by 592% over a 17-year period.
In a one-year period, drug overdose deaths increased in the U.S. by 30.8%. Over 63% of those overdoses were opioid related.
The chances of relapse are 91%, which is the highest relapse rate of any other addiction, second only to alcohol.
