Purpose Of Review: Opioids remain the most potent form of pain relief currently available, yet have a high abuse liability. Here we discuss underlying neurobiological changes in Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) that likely contribute to drug craving, which in turn drives continued drug use and relapse.
Recent Findings: Craving has emerged as a strong indicator in drug-seeking and relapse.
