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.
