Reviews
“This is quite of an intro into mind puzzling theme as opioid dependence which caught attention of all medical professionals prescribing opioid medications. … I would like to conclude that authors gave great insight into scientificviews of opioid dependence and medication assisted therapy but emphasized that it requires much more than this for accomplishing recovery from opioid dependence.” (Marijana Batković, Alcoholism and Psychiatry Research, Vol. 53 (2). 2017)
