The Walid–Robinson Opioid-Dependence (WROD) Questionnaire is a questionnaire designed based on the World Health Organization and the American Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders clinical guidelines for a definite diagnosis of “dependence” that require three or more of six characteristic features being experienced or exhibited:
- Do you desire to continue taking your opioid medication?
- Do you now experience lengthy periods of use or binge patterns of use?
- Do you have tremors and use substances to relieve withdrawal symptoms?
- Are you able to take more drug without easing the pain?
- Do you neglect food, hygiene or health care?
- Do you want to continue use the drug despite knowledge of problems caused or exacerbated by it?
