Project
|Updated
We will systematically summarise research on short- and long-term effects for mother, foetus and child of buprenorphine- versus methadone-based maintenance treatment during pregnancy.
Summary
It is unclear whether opioid dependent women in fertile age should be recommended buprenorphine or methadone when they enter opioid maintenance treatment (OMT). We will systematically summarise research on short- and long-term effects for mother, foetus and child of buprenorphine- versus methadone-based maintenance treatment during pregnancy.
