Summary

This study is testing whether a 12-week peer-led program on Instagram can help young adults (ages 18-25) who misuse prescription opioids. Participants will be split into two groups: one gets the Instagram program with a peer leader, the other does not. The goal is to see if the program is easy to use and helps reduce risky opioid use.
