Buprenorphine has superior safety in opioid use disorder compared with alternatives due to its action as a partial opioid agonist, which limits its ability to cause respiratory depression. There is a risk of precipitated opioid withdrawal after buprenorphine exposure in someone using full opioid agonists. Buprenorphine induction strategies that avoid precipitated withdrawal remain a crucial component for starting buprenorphine in individuals actively using opioids.

The administration of lidocaine as part of multimodal analgesia in dogs undergoing ovariohysterectomies demonstrates variable analgesic efficacy. The aim of this prospective, double-blinded clinical study was to evaluate the effectiveness of lidocaine 2% irrigation on the ovarian suspensory ligament, followed by localised massage, in achieving sufficient intraoperative analgesia. Thirty-eight female dogs were randomly divided to two groups and received either a splash block of 0.

Background And Objectives: Buprenorphine extended-release monthly formulation (BUP-XR, SUBLOCADE) is approved for treatment of moderate-to-severe opioid use disorder (OUD) following subcutaneous injection in the abdomen. This open-label pharmacokinetic study assessed three alternative injection locations (upper arm, thigh, buttocks) to offer additional flexibility considering the chronic nature of the disease and patient preferences.
Methods: Following stabilization on 12/3 mg/day of sublingual buprenorphine/naloxone for ≥ 7 days, participants with moderate-to-severe OUD were randomized to receive a single 300-mg BUP-XR injection in the upper arm, thigh, buttocks, or abdomen (reference).
