Brandeis and CDC Wrong on Buprenorphine PDMP Data

April 27, 2017 by admin 9 Comments

I’ll share an interesting story about the data used for the prescription drug database in Wisconsin and other states.  I’ve been holding back on writing about this issue in hopes that the reason for the story would be corrected, and I would have no story to tell.  But that hasn’t happened. A new law in … [Read more…]

Where’s the Buprenorphine asked Mr. Obvious? Thanks, CDC!

March 21, 2017 by admin 17 Comments

A quick note tonight, hopefully with a longer post to follow this weekend… I’ve been frustrated by the people behind the Wisconsin PDMP, or Prescription Drug Monitoring Program, for their mistakes related to buprenorphine. Whoever came up with the numbers made a rookie error when calculating the equivalent morphine dose of patients taking buprenorphine products. … [Read more…]

Benzos and Buprenorphine

January 27, 2017 by admin 6 Comments

The high safety of buprenorphine, except when combined with a benzodiazepine, has been twisted in comments about the drug (and in the minds of regulators) to buprenorphine being uniquely dangerous when combined with benzodiazepines, which is not true. I’ve heard more and more from insurers, regulators, and well-meaning agencies about the dangers of combining buprenorphine … [Read more…]

Another Suboxone Argument

February 14, 2015 by admin 1 Comment

It has been awhile since I posted a give and take with a misguided reader. I’ve taken that interval as good news that education is winning over misinformation. But then I read this comment.  I didn’t fix her typos, as I think they provide insight into her opinion: My daughter was on Suboxone, because she … [Read more…]

Newborn Buprenorphine Abstinence: Standard of Care

December 29, 2014 by admin Leave a Comment

First Posted 2/1/2014 The topic of newborn abstinence syndrome from buprenorphine provokes strong emotions.  Expectant mothers anticipate harsh attitudes from doctors and nurses.  They worry that their use of buprenorphine will cause their babies to suffer from withdrawal.  They hear about the experiences of women reported to CPS after delivery, or whose babies were kept … [Read more…]

On Biodelivery and Norbuprenorphine

November 30, 2014 by admin Leave a Comment

Over the past few months, I’ve read a few posts at the forum that are worth sharing.  I’ve been torn whether to share them with the general buprenorphine community, or only with doctors who prescribe the medication.  I’ve decided that since the ideas came from a layperson community, I’m not opening the floodgates to irresponsible … [Read more…]

New Bupe News Section

November 16, 2014 by admin Leave a Comment

Wanted to take a second or two to point out a new section to the blog, called ‘Bupe News’.  You’ll see the link at the tope of the page, along with an ever-growing list of links.  The point, of course, is to keep y’all reading, since Google knows EVERYTHING, including how many seconds each and … [Read more…]

The Ibogaine Cure

November 11, 2014 by admin Leave a Comment

First Posted 7/28/2013 Ibogaine, a drug long-rumored to treat opioid withdrawal, has become a hot topic for those taking buprenorphine.  Ibogaine is a complex molecule that comes from a group of plants that are known, in West Central Africa, as Iboga.  In native African culture the drug is used to induce psychedelic states that are part … [Read more…]
