AbstractUntreated opioid dependence adversely affects the care of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-positive patients. Buprenorphine, a partial opioid agonist, is available for maintenance treatment of opioid dependence in HIV specialty settings. We investigated the feasibility and efficacy of integrating buprenorphine, along with 2 levels of counseling, into HIV clinical care.
