L’objectif

This study aimed to examine primary care GPs' opinions about buprenorphine and habits related to prescribing buprenorphine.

Constatations/points à retenir

A sample of French GPs who work in primary care has a positive view of buprenorphine, but the absence of SUD training among this population may be a barrier to their prescribing buprenorphine.
