520			_a"When Steven Gutsch recalls first shooting up heroin, nostalgia takes over. 'I fell in love with it,' the twitchy 20-year-old says. 'Your whole body feels sooooo good. It's like sex times three.' But even that couldn't compare with what followed: an eternal terror of getting 'dopesick'--the cramping, vomiting, diarrheic, restless, aching limbo of opiate withdrawal. It's like sick times 10. A little orange pill might free him from the relentless craving and the fear coming off opiates. Addiction specialists think the drug, buprenorphine, holds even greater promise for middle-class addicts who stumble into dependence on prescription painkillers. If only they could score it." (KANSAS CITY STAR) This article reasons that it is difficult for heroin addicts to obtain buprenorphine because "few physicians hold the power to prescribe the new drug" and "those who can prescribe may carry no more than 30 buprenorphine patients at a time."
