I’ve never craved NO2 after a dentist appointment, but I’m not suggesting it doesn’t happen. Every now and then I come across an article about some dentist who is addicted to it. It does act on opiate receptors.

I would think suboxone would block it’s effects, but apparently not! Very interesting. Maybe if they figure out why sub doesn’t block it, it would lead to some very important discoveries about opiate receptors!

It is used in some parts of the world to treat alcohol and other addictions (NO2 in South Africa). Humans react very differently to it, as do various other species. It causes dopamine release, but blocks the dopamine release of amphetamines. Very interesting reading! Wiki page for NO2
