Clinical Resources: Buprenorphine in Borderline Personality Disorder
Primary Care Materials
This page hosts practical resources for clinicians and patients exploring the potential role of buprenorphine in Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD), particularly in cases marked by severe interpersonal dysregulation, affective instability, and self-injurious behavior.
These materials are educational and mechanism-focused. They are not formal treatment guidelines and do not replace clinical judgment.
Primary Care Guide
This guide is written for primary care clinicians and other prescribers who are comfortable with buprenorphine in other contexts (e.g., pain or OUD) but have not considered its potential role in affective and interpersonal dysregulation.
Status
This guide is shared to invite thoughtful feedback from clinicians, researchers, and people with lived experience. It is a working document and will be revised as new evidence and clinical insight develop.
