Pregnancy Under Subutex (Buprenorphine): Opinions Expressed on French Internet Forums

Pages 1652-1667 | Published online: 30 Jun 2010
 

Abstract

Internet forums record the opinions and advice exchanged about pregnancy under Subutex. Two hundred and fourteen messages under 92 nicknames from four forums, especially dedicated to this subject in France, from August 2005 to July 2008 were collected and analyzed with QSR NIVIVO8. Most of the Internet users were women, pregnant, or with children, using Subutex. Very few professionals took part in them. The analysis of the opinions and representations of this substance, of medical practices, of exchanged advice, particularly on posology, was realized by the construction of a thematic tree.
