Abstract
Buprenorphine is used for medication-assisted treatment of opioid dependence. Monitoring of medication adherence involves testing of urine or oral fluid for the drug or its metabolite. Quantitative results using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometer testing defined the excretion pattern of the drug and its metabolites. Frequency distribution curves of buprenorphine and norbuprenorphine describe the expected drug concentrations of patients on this medication. Urine and oral fluid drug testing can be used to monitor adherence in this population.
