► Recent findings have linked the NPS system to drug dependence. ► NPS activity may contribute to vulnerability to addiction, especially relapse. ► Effects of NPS on drugs of abuse are mediated by CRF and Hcrt-1/Ox-A systems. ► Interactions between NPS, CRF, and the Hcrt-1/Ox-A systems in addiction are analyzed. ► The use of NPS receptor antagonists as a potential treatment for addiction is analyzed.
