Isi artikel

Opioid abuse is a devastating, costly, and growing problem in the United States, and one for which treatment can be complicated by barriers such as access to care and legal issues. Only 12% to 15% of the opioid-dependent population is enrolled in methadone maintenance programs. A significant breakthrough occurred with passage of the Drug Addiction Treatment Act of 2000 (DATA 2000). For the first time in approximately 80 years, physicians could legally prescribe opioid medications for the treatment of opioid addiction. The opiate, so designated, was buprenorphine (Subutex).
