Durgin C, Huhn A, Bergeria C, Finan P, Campbell C, Antoine D, Dunn K. Inter-individual differences in sensitivity to opioids may explain different opioid risk profiles, but to date has only been evaluated in persons with opioid use disorder (OUD). This study examined individual differences in opioid effects within an opioid-naïve population. To be presented… Read More

Durgin C, Huhn A, Bergeria C, Finan P, Campbell C, Antoine D, Dunn K. Only a percentage of people exposed to opioids develop problematic use. Individual opioid sensitivity may explain different opioid risk profiles, but to date has only been evaluated in persons with opioid use disorder (OUD).

BZs are associated with drug tolerance/dependence,… Read More
