Why is buprenorphine less addictive than other opioids?
Answer / Ratnakar
Buprenorphine is less addictive than other opioids due to its partial agonist activity and ceiling effect. Unlike full opioid agonists, buprenorphine only weakly activates the mu-opioid receptor, while also blocking the effects of other opioids. This means that even if a person takes more than the recommended dose, they will not experience a stronger effect, which can reduce the potential for addiction.
