Best Answer

"Opiate Naive" is a term used to describe people who do not have a tolerance to opiates. Opiates are a group of medications, that if used reguarly, produce physical dependence/tolerance. Somebody who has a tolerance to, or a physical dependence on, opiates will be able to tolerate much higher doses of opiates than somebody who doesn't. A tolerance to opiods (opiods are a type of synthetic opiate - examples of opiods include Demerol (pethidine) and Methadone) will also result in tolerance to opiates and vice versa.
