#Only significant correlations, and correlations that explained 60% or more of the variance were considered; full information in Supplementary Data 2. Similarity and SD gamma scores for Buprenorphine, Fentanyl, Morphine, Oxycodone, and Tramadol were used to establish correlations. Loperamide was additionally included in correlations for gastrointestinal reports. Source data provided in Supplementary Data 2 and source data files
