CAMurus

  • At Camurus, we're striving for a future in which people struggling with opioid dependence have equitable access to high quality, individualised treatment, helping to overcome the barriers that may stand in their way. 

    We believe that all people who use drugs, whether in the community or criminal justice setting, should be offered a range of treatment options and be empowered to make a personal decision, with the support of their healthcare team, about what treatment is right for them.  

    We also want to help remove the stigma associated with a complex condition like opioid dependence and encourage a more empathetic approach to patients from policy makers, healthcare providers and the public at large.
