Community pharmacy attitudes and behaviors following a buprenorphine best practices dissemination. [PDF]
Introduction: Opioid overdose deaths continue to rise despite available safe and efficacious treatments for opioid use disorder, such as buprenorphine. Whereas provider-level access to buprenorphine has improved, community pharmacy-level barriers remain,

Interacti on of buprenorphine with phosphatidylcholine [PDF]
The interaction between phosphatidylcholine and buprenorphine have been studied by means of differential scanning calorimetry of liposome, compression isotherms and penetration kinetics of monolayers. The results show that the interactions are highly dependent on the ionized state of the buprenorphine molecules, being higher in buffered solutions.

Managing opioid withdrawal precipitated by buprenorphine with buprenorphine [PDF]
AbstractBuprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist commonly used to treat opioid dependence. The pharmacology of buprenorphine increases the risk of a precipitated opioid withdrawal when commencing patients on buprenorphine treatment, particularly when transferring from long acting opioids (e.g. methadone).
