Opioid dependence, sustained partial remission – http://id.who.int/icd/entity/157120957
After a diagnosis of Opioid dependence, and often following a treatment episode or other intervention (including self-help intervention), there is a significant reduction in opioid consumption for more than 12 months, such that even though opioid use has occurred during this period, the definitional requirements for dependence have not been met.
