Clinical Trial Description

People who addicted to Heroin and other opiates suffer from a disease with approved genetic basis. It causes to a behavioral response as searching and using those drugs even though they know it causes severe damages as physiological, familiar and legal affairs.

The popular treatment's goal is to "clean" the people from any drug. In a medical and pharmacological point of view there is no sense in this approach for all people. This point of view believes that Buprenorphine (Subutex) is a correct pharmacological treatment.

The hypothesis of this research is that people using Buprenorphine have difficulties in gaining weight, in sexual and cognitive function (according to subjects' reports) We examine people who stopped opiates and began Buprenorphine. Every participant in the study will have two visits: the first one before receiving Buprenorphine and the second one after 3 months of receiving Buprenorphine. ;
