@article{Campbell2012TheHO, title={The history of the development of buprenorphine as an addiction therapeutic}, author={Nancy D. Campbell and Anne M Lovell}, journal={Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences}, year={2012}, volume={1248} }
This paper traces the early 21st century success of the agonist–antagonist buprenorphine and the combination drug buprenorphine with naloxone within the broader quest to develop addiction therapeutics that began in the 1920s as the search for a nonaddictive analgesic. Drawing on archival research, document analysis, and interviews with contemporary actors, this paper situates the social organization of laboratory‐based and clinical research within the domestic and international confluence of…

It appears that there is less potential for drug abuse when buprenorphine is used instead of methadone, and social reintegration is an important aspect of social rehabilitation of opioid addicts, and it is therefore extremely important to recognize psychological and social factors that can act as protective factors, but also as risk factors.
