Abstract
A viewpoint, “Addressing the Escalating Problems That Patients Encounter When Filling Buprenorphine Prescriptions,” published last week underscores the problems patients have getting buprenorphine prescriptions filled. Clinicians report that they can't find pharmacies who are willing to fill buprenorphine prescriptions. And the authors note that patients need these prescriptions filled immediately, or they risk relapse to street drugs including illicit fentanyl which is deadly.
