BACKGROUND: Although opioid prescribing in sickle cell disease (SCD) can be controversial, little is published about patterns of opioid use.OBJECTIVE: To report on home opioid use among adults with SCD.DESIGN: Cohort study.PARTICIPANTS: Adults with SCD (n=219) who completed daily pain diaries for up to 6 months and had at least one home pain day.MAIN MEASURES: Use of long-acting or short-acting opioids, other analgesics, or adjuvants; the proportion of home days, home pain days, and home crisis days with opioid use; these two outcomes according to patient characteristics.KEY RESULTS: Patients used opioids on 12,311 (78 percent) of 15,778 home pain days. Eighty-five patients (38.8 percent) used long-acting opioids with or without short-acting opioids and 103 (47.0 percent) used only short-acting opioids. Twenty-one (9.6 percent) patients used only non-opioid analgesics and 10 (4.6 percent) used no analgesics. Both pain intensity and pain frequency were higher among opioid users (analysis of variance [ANOVA], p
