Instructions: Download the Microsoft Word document. Complete the questions in the document. It is
preferable to use Microsoft Word to type your answers in the document allowing the sections to “expand”.
Alternatively, you can write your answers in a separate document. Save your completed file using the
following format: "PSB4434_A3_YourLastName_YourPID.docx" . Submit your document via Canvas. Each
answer should be 1-2 paragraphs (1 paragraph = 4-5 sentences).
1. Historical. Briefly describe the recreational and medicinal use of opiates from a historical perspective
(10 pts).
2. Acute effects and withdrawal. Contrast the acute effects of opioid administration with the symptoms of
opioid withdrawal. Describe a model of withdrawal that accounts for this pattern of withdrawal symptoms
in the opposite direction of the drug’s acute effects (10 pts).
3. Treatment. A common treatment for heroin addiction is methadone maintenance. Just like heroin,
methadone is a narcotic analgesic that is addictive. The idea of methadone maintenance is simple: replace
one addictive drug with another. For more thoughts on methadone maintenance, read the online article here .
