Implication

Clinical review highlights perioperative risks in patients on buprenorphine, methadone, or naltrexone, suggesting preoperative clinic evaluation optimizes surgical analgesic management.

Key Points

Deviations from perioperative management recommendations impair surgical outcomes in patients receiving methadone, buprenorphine, or naltrexone.
Complex pharmacology of buprenorphine and methadone during substance use disorder therapy creates substantial perioperative analgesia challenges.
Formal preoperative evaluation clinic visits may optimize multimodal analgesic regimens and improve surgical recovery in these vulnerable cohorts.
