Effect of Incarceration History on Outcomes of Primary Care Office-based Buprenorphine/Naloxone

Conclusions  Prior history of incarceration does not appear to impact primary care office-based treatment of opioid dependence with buprenorphine/naloxone.
Community health care providers can be reassured that initiating buprenorphine/naloxone in opioid dependent individuals with
a history of incarceration will have similar outcomes as those without this history.

Prospective comparative assessment of buprenorphine overdose with heroin and methadone: Clinical characteristics and response to antidotal treatment

In conclusion, buprenorphine overdose causes an opioid syndrome clinically indistinguishable from heroin and methadone. Although mental status and respiratory depression are often unresponsive to low-dose naloxone, flumazenil may be effective in buprenorphine overdoses involving benzodiazepines.
