I read with great interest the article by Cosci et al in a recent issue of your journal.1 The article provides for highly interesting reading and is very thought-provoking. Interestingly, the past few years have seen the emergence of extensive data that establish a close association between the A118G single nucleotide polymorphism of the OPRM1 gene and opioid, alcohol, and nicotine dependence.
