    Starting Long-Acting Buprenorphine During Medical Hospitalization

    Long-acting injectable formulations of buprenorphine can be a good treatment option for patients with opioid use disorder, particularly for those with poor adherence.

Here, researchers demonstrate the feasibility of starting buprenorphine with a microinduction approach followed shortly by administration of a long-acting injection.
