Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanisms of fatal opioid overdose.
Jason M. White,Rodney J. Irvine +1 more
TL;DR: Better understanding of the role of heroin metabolites, the metabolism of methadone, drug interactions and tolerance would all be of considerable value in knowing how best to respond to this problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
The nature, time course and severity of methamphetamine withdrawal.
Catherine McGregor,Manit Srisurapanont,Jaroon Jittiwutikarn,Suchart Laobhripatr,Thirawat Wongtan,Jason M. White +5 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided of a methamphetamine withdrawal syndrome that can be categorized into two phases, the acute phase lasting 7-10 days during which overall symptom severity declined in a linear pattern from a high initial peak, and a subacute phase lasting at least a further 2 weeks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hyperalgesic responses in methadone maintenance patients
TL;DR: Although responding to changes in plasma methadone concentration, maintenance patients are markedly hyperalgesic to pain induced by the cold pressor test, determined by the nature of the nociceptive stimulus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Buprenorphine versus methadone maintenance therapy: a randomized double-blind trial with 405 opioid-dependent patients.
TL;DR: Buprenorphine did not differ from methadone in its ability to suppress heroin use, but retained approximately 10% fewer patients, due possibly to too-slow induction onto buprenorphines.
Reference EntryDOI
Buprenorphine for the management of opioid withdrawal
TL;DR: The findings of these studies support the feasibility of heroin withdrawal being managed with buprenorphine on an outpatient basis and the effectiveness of the variety of approaches to managing opioid withdrawal.
