Opioids – a brief overview
Agonist Heroin, hydrocodone, oxycodone, fentanyl
Antagonist Naloxone, naltrexone
Mixed agonist/antagonist Pentozacine, butorphanol (Stadol)
Partial agonist Buprenorphine

Buprenorphine – a partial agonist
High affinity for the mu opioid receptor Competes with other opioids and blocks their effects Can precipitate withdrawal in highly opioid
dependent individuals Slow dissociation from the mu receptor
Prolonged therapeutic effect for opioid dependence treatment
“Ceiling effect” for stimulation of a given receptor

Buprenorphine – a partial agonist
Poor oral bioavailability Fair sublingual bioavailability Takes about 10 minutes to dissolve Schedule III drug With naloxone (4:1) (Suboxone) or without
(Subutex) Analgesic dose for mild to moderate pain is 0.3
– 0.6 mg. (0.4 mg = ~10 mg morphine)

Who is an appropriate patient?
Opioid dependent Wants to stop using Psychiatrically stable Interested in office-based care Reliable – can keep appointments Agrees to urine tox screens Has social support

Meet Ryan -
Went to the ED in withdrawal. Longstanding use of OxyContin. $100/day “habit”. Snorts q day for months, then stops. Moves back to the Bay Area and within
days, he’s back to using.

“I’m tired of snorting Oxies, Doc. Can you help me?”
I’m snorting 5 oxies per day – it’s an insane amount to be putting into my body.
My palms are sweaty in the morning. Then I have intense pain in my thighs. I feel fidgety to an extreme. So much physical and mental anguish. I don’t want to waste money on this. It’s
destroying my life.
