Brexpiprazole: A Potential Treatment for Opioid Use Disorder

This research investigates the potential of brexpiprazole, an atypical antipsychotic, as a treatment for opioid use disorder. The study explores the effects of brexpiprazole in a mouse model of opioid dependence, examining its impact on locomotor sensitization, analgesic tolerance, opioid-induced hyperalgesia, and drug-seeking behavior. The results suggest that brexpiprazole may be effective in attenuating the development of opioid dependence and reducing drug-seeking behavior.
