Tatjana May, another non-executive director, followed with another 22,309 shares at 44.58p each the next day, leaving her with 22,309 shares.

Indivior shares got a boost on the back of the news that the drug developer\'s directors had been buying up its stock.

The company, which makes opioid addiction treatment Suboxone, has been under intense pressure after it was hit with US fraud charges over a marketing scheme used to boost prescriptions of its opioid addiction drugs.

At 1620 BST, Indivior shares were up 14.91% at 52p.
