The purpose of this study is to assess the clinical efficacy of the buprenorphine/naloxone combination tablet for alternate-day dosing and determine whether multiples of the daily dose are necessary to maintain an effective alternate day dosing regimen.
Alternate-day dosing with the 8mg buprenorphine-naloxone tablet is as safe and effective as daily dosing. Outcomes are improved when the total weekly dose provided during alternate-day dosing is equal to that given during daily dosing.
