Less Impairment on One Portion of a Driving-Relevant Psychomotor Battery in Buprenorphine-Maintained Than in Methadone-Maintained Patients

Abstract: Although there were no differences in cognitive function at baseline, patients under buprenorphine treatment showed partially better results in some of the domains tested. The used tests are relevant when assessing driving ability. There was a significant correlation between dose of buprenorphine and some test results. We also found a correlation between age and reaction time and between duration of opioid dependence and results in some subtests. INTERPRETATIONS (CONCLUSIONS): When comparing both treatments in… Show more

Andere Substanzen, wie Benzodiazepine oder Antidepressiva, zeigen einen stärkeren Einfluss auf die Fahrtauglichkeit, als Opioide in stabiler Dosierung (Zacny 1996).…”
