Buprenorphine is the first medication to treat opioid use disorder that may be prescribed or distributed in doctor's offices, vastly expanding access to care. Buprenorphine should be prescribed as a component of a thorough treatment plan that includes counseling and other services to give patients a whole-person approach, as is the case with all drugs used in therapy. Buprenorphine provides a number of benefits for those with opioid use disorder and for those for whom therapy at an opioid treatment center is uncomfortable or inappropriate.
The following buprenorphine products are approved for the treatment of opioid use disorder by the U.S. FDA:
- Generic buprenorphine/naloxone sublingual tablets
- Buprenorphine sublingual tablets (Subutex)
- Buprenorphine/naloxone sublingual films (Suboxone)
- Buprenorphine/naloxone sublingual tablets (Zubsolv)
- Buprenorphine/naloxone buccal film (Bunavail)
- Buprenorphine implants (Probuphine)
- Buprenorphine extended-release injection (Sublocade)
Market Dynamics
Increasing approval of buprenorphine by regulatory authorities for subcutaneous use is expected to increase the global buprenorphine market over the forecast period. For instance, in March, 2018, Indivior PLC, a pharmaceutical company, announced that SUBLOCADE (buprenorphine extended-release) injection, for subcutaneous use (CIII), is available in the U.S. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted approval for the use of SUBLOCADE for the treatment of moderate to severe opioid use disorder (OUD) in adult patients who have started therapy with a transmucosal buprenorphine-containing medication and have undergone dose titration for at least seven days. It should only be given by medical professionals, and it should be part of a comprehensive treatment plan that also includes counseling and psychosocial support.
