Cognitive impairment and opioid maintenance

It’s really hard to tell from these summaries they put up online. But there are some confounding factors like … the fact that people who require maintenance are often more dependent in the first place, so have probably used more drugs and fried themselves a bit more. I think it’s also a shame that more people on buprenorphine weren’t tested. But 30 people should be enough to get a pattern.

It’d be interesting to hear from the people who’ve gone off Sub, whether they noticed any differences once they got off.
