“…Several animal models for NOWS have been developed ( Fodor et al, 2014 ; Chen et al, 2015 ; Byrnes and Vassoler, 2018 ), differing in time of exposure (i.e., prenatally, postnatally, or both), specific opioid (morphine, heroin, methadone, oxycodone, and/or buprenorphine), and dosing regimen (e.g., injections, pellets, mini-pumps; Byrnes and Vassoler, 2018 ; Robinson et al, 2020 ; Minakova et al, 2021 ). The physiological and behavioral consequences of opioids on development depends on the timing, duration, and route of drug administration ( Fodor et al, 2014 ; Byrnes and Vassoler, 2018 ).…”
