Patients with opioid use disorder may be on suboxone (buprenorphine-suboxone) as part of an opioid wean plan. Suboxone is a mixed partial agonist-antagonist which is used to prevent symptoms of opiate withdrawal while slowly titrating off other opioid medications.  
Patient's with opioid use disorder on maintenance therapy with Suboxone (buprenorphine-naloxone) or methadone are at high risk of inadequately controlled pain post-procedure 2/2 low dosing or slow titration.

Epidemiology

Anesthetic implications

Patient's with opioid use disorder on maintenance therapy with Suboxone (buprenorphine-naloxone) or methadone are at high risk of inadequately controlled pain post-procedure 2/2 low dosing or slow titration.

Pathophysiology

Buprenorphine is a partial mu-opioid receptor agonist and kappa-opioid receptor. It is associated with less opioid-induced hyperalgesia compared to other opioids.

Anesthetic management

Preoperative optimization

The dose of suboxone has implications for the risk of opioid tolerance and increased post-operative pain.

Non-opioid agents such as Tylenol and gabapentin. Gabapentin has been shown to promote drug-abstinence in patient on outpatient methadone therapy.[1] A shared neuro-inflammatory and central sensitization process akin to that of neuropathic pain may explain the cross-benefit it has in patients with opioid-induced hyperalgesia.

Intraoperative management

Regional anesthesia techniques

Ketamine is a useful adjunct in

Postoperative management

Consider post-operative stay in the ICU for pain management and consultation of in-house pain service. Buprenorphine can be safely ordered at patient's reported dosing for post-operative pain management as it is unlikely to cause respiratory depression.
