One notable example of drug repurposing is taking the partial mu-opioid receptor agonist buprenorphine-which has been prescribed for control of moderate pain for decades in low dosages in the form of Temgesic 200mcg sublingual tablets, Buprenex 300mcg / mL ampoules-and marketing a high-dosage formulation ( Subutex 2 mg and 8 mg ) for the interruption and maintenance of heroin and other opioid addictions, which it has proven very beneficial for, with over 200, 000 people in the United States alone on buprenorphine maintenance.
