Recommendation 47

47 Paragraph: 169

Long-acting buprenorphine shows encouraging results for opioid treatment in Wales.

Conclusion
We welcome the 10-Year Drug Strategy’s recognition of the potential positive impact of long-acting buprenorphine. We think that the use of Buvidal in Wales has provided a very encouraging UK evidence base and proved that it is an effective form of opioid substitution treatment.
