What is Buprenorphine ?
Buprenorphine is a potent opioid medication used to manage moderate to severe pain and treat opioid addiction. It functions as a partial agonist at mu-opioid receptors in the brain, thereby reducing pain and mitigating withdrawal symptoms and cravings in opioid-dependent individuals. Buprenorphine is often preferred for its lower risk of abuse, addiction, and side effects compared to full opioid agonists.
