Indications (excerpt from the label)

INDICATIONS AND USAGE Buprenorphine hydrochloride injection is indicated for the management of pain severe enough to require an opioid analgesic and for which alternate treatments are inadequate. Limitations of Use: Because of the risks of addiction, abuse, misuse, overdose, and death which can occur at any dosage or duration and persist over the course of therapy [see WARNINGS ] , reserve opioid analgesics, including buprenorphine, for use in patients for whom alternative treatment options are ineffective, not tolerated, or would be otherwise inadequate to provide sufficient management of pain.
