Like I said, I am for it at the beginning of treatment, until the ancilary habits and old friends are discarded. If after that, the patient is stable with the regiment, I would take off the naloxone because it’s not good for you and can and has been known to block other medications.
Also, the bioavailability of naloxone seems to be higher than reported because the treatment drugs, buprenorphine and methadone appear truncated, they wear off quicker requiring the addict to need more to remain unsick. And because treatment can last years, I don’t think its a good thing long term. Good thing short term, not a good thing long term.
