Tks for sharing your story. Most people don't know how powerfully effective this drug is (if used properly). For 20 years I fought H addiction. People do not understand that this is not easy to kick - and after all of the home remedies street trick, detoxes etc - nothing every worked. The only time I was able to abstain was when I was in jail, which was often the case as I did what ever I could to sustain my habit. All I ever wanted was to live a normal life free from the insanity. This drug has helped me in an amazing way. I am on it for 11 years - living an amazing functional life. Some may think it is a temporary drug that you ween off of. For me it has not been (although everyone is different). My life is no longer broken, so I attempt not to fix it by getting off of the drug. Unfortunately, my doctor (who has stood by me for 11 years) is leaving private practice, and I cannot find a doctor to take me. It is apparent that this drug too has been abused, and sold on the street market, etc. It attracts a certain type of people (those addicted) and many doctors are cautious. I am frightened that I may not be able to locate a doctor willing to take me on and without medication be left with unhealthy options.

I SELF medicate subs ,my advice to most of you is research what you're taking no one needs as much as some of you are taking I started at 4mgs the first and 2 mgs daily after that for a week then went down .5 mgs a week until I'm currently taking 0.5 mgs a day that's cutting a strip into 16 pieces and going to .25 next week. Then plan on skipping days and stopping. So. stop listening to doctors who only subscribe as they were taught by the maker of the pill google suboxone read others are doing to be free of opiates or at least learn how to get your usage down..

Yeah that's not right I know in michigan w/I insurance 1 is 11.99 but the more u get the cheaper it is. What state r u in? I know some primary physicians can do scripts for buphrenorphine naloxone so mayb u can call round and ask if there's primary docs that can do it. Worth a try cuz no real friend would do that.

If the USA was worried about it's drug problems it would be GIVING Suboxone to people who really want help not charging them a crazy price for it.

Yeah, and every doctor whose able to prescribe narcotics has a DEA#.

As for finding a subutex friendly doctor, I go to a clinic with several locations and several physicians although you only see one but anyways, the people I know that go there and get subutex say they tell the doctor that suboxone gives them headaches or they need a cheaper option. Or if female you're thinking about getting pregnant or if you're breastfeeding. I know a girl who tells her doc she's been trying to and having a hard time getting pregnant.

MY DR. WILL ONLY PRESCRIBE SUBOXONE, DESPITE SUBUTEX GENERIC BEING CHEAPER. WHAT'S THE BEST WAY TO FIND A SUBUTEX FRIENDLY DR, AND IS IT LIKE SUBOXONE WHERE THEY NEED A SPECIAL DEA #?

I COULDN'T GET MEDICAID TO COVER MY SUBOXONE BECAUSE THERE IS NO "WEAN OFF PLAN". LONG STORY HOW I GOT ON IT BUT IT SEEMS THE COMBINATION OF SUBOXONE AND CYMBALTA I AM PRESCRIBED FOR DEPRESSION BUT HELPS PAIN MANAGEMENT REALLY HELPS MY BACK. I DON'T WANT TO HAVE TO TAKE AN OPIATE THAT WILL MAKE ME HIGH - WHICH IRONICALLY THE INSURANCE WOULD PROBABLY PAY FOR!

Exactly, right? Man how much did MOST people here waste on buying drugs, and now they complain about this when they'd spend 5x, generously at least, the price of the subs buying off the street within a week. $20/day is a relatively inexpensive opiate habit, I've known so damn many... so that would be $600 a month of just purely "getting by" cheaply and unglamorously, even with good luck/connection. A better number would be double that, more like $800, more like 40 bucks a day for the majority of users to maintain (and more, and more...). Keep in mind that if your short cashed, bupe is STRONG stuff, and most doctors are willing to write for 16-24mg/day no problem in the US. Even a BAD addict can get by just fine on like 4mg/day, even less. If your smart, you can make it very affordable, and for the love... its a helluva lot cheaper than scoring/using/ and thats just the money part, to say nothing of finally being trustworthy, not perennially broke, sick as hell or on cloud 9, constant stress of that life, the so so many dangers involved, the wasted time, it has to come to an end. Methadone is much more affordable but I seriously urge you to go the sub route, its a better med to be on for a lot of reasons IMO. Schlepping to a clinic every morning sounds like s*** to me. Go to the heretohelp site, get a discount, or very least get the generic subutex. I think the suboxone strips are better, but the little white generic bupe is cheap, and of course has to contain 8mg of bupe. A lot of people I know prefer them to suboxone anyway. I'm ranting sorry bout it. Just a "pet pieve" of sorts cuz its so worth it to get outta the "game."

I just wanna say that I have a big time love/hate relationship with "Bupe." (Sigh). It truly is an amazing medication. For me it seems to have what I would perceive as antidepressant qualities. I feel absolutely NONE of the typical feelings I'd feel while using (ie dramatic as hell ups and downs, usually). I'm male and find it effects my libidio none at all if not, its possibly helpful (which hopefully its 2014 right? is not too much, lol) while pure agonist opiates certainly do and did its a crap side effect, and people on MMT apparently suffer the same unfortunate fate, its only bupe that is different. But it blocks euphoria from even booze for me, not kidding, and I find that annoying. I can't even get drunk on the stuff, it really has a way of jamming up those receptors man, o man. That said, a plus of that is I haven't drank hardly a drop in a long time and I use to be a big drinker. Love that warm relaxed buzzed feeling, my God who wouldn't! :). But sadly this feeling seems to be blunted, and I can only attribute it to subs, anecdotally because I was off for over a month and was able to get a euphoric drunk after awhile, so yup. BTW cannabis is simply the best and ahhh anyone who thinks otherwise oughta just keep it to themselves because they look like an ass. It is infinitely safer and more effective than SO many stupid man tweaked molecules, 0h the suffering vanity of man! We cannot purely deny nature, nor should we. Let's collectively move on from 3rd grade and begin to truly explore the medicinal potentials of this, and many other, amazing plants. Man I got off topic! My main points were 1) 8mg should be the highest dose one takes per day, 2) however it doesn't hurt for your doctor to think your on 12 or 16, for security purposes and to stretch the cost of each visit. My personal opinion is that suboxone, bupe, (but i find the strips the best, each their own), is a wonder drug, but you have to want to be on it, so think it over. Its definitely a MAJOR life decision that often gets made in haste. I don't regret it at all, personally. But, I know theres a chance I might have to have it on hand for rest of my life and I have, hopefully, a decent chunk of time ;). I don't beat myself for being on it anymore. It does not make me high at all, if anything simply normal, and I feel no ill side effects whatsover. A theory of mine is that the endogenous opiod and endogenous cannabinoid systems have yet to be truly understood and are at the forefront of what I believe will be the realization of meds to treat a wide variety of issues. Dealing with doctors is just a fact of my life now, and its annoying like a lousy ass new neighbor is annoying ~. It CAN be done, use O'bama. USE O'bamacare!! If you can't, if your doctor is overcharging...then stock up! Do what ya can, cuz if that s*** is really ruining your life, suboxone can be a true life boat, and it can save your ass. Lot's of negative rumors about it. To a lot of people who hate out there: try taking Prozac daily for a year and quit one day, and have fun. W/D is simply an innate aspect of medication, even some that have NO mental effects whatsoever. Its the body readjusting in the absence of an overabundance of a certain chemical, neurotransmitter, blah, blah, you get it, ah sure ya do. Anyway my friends my lovely friends be good to yourselves I'll try and do the same, adios for now ~!

I couldn't agree any more!! I am now 4yrs clean! Short relapse after lower back surgery, but Suboxen actually saved me from what a horror nightmare could've been!!
I completely agree w/ so much of what you've said...1.) Everyone's different. & heals on their own time, on their own speed, & their own way. 2.) I've also taken Lrg amounts thinking I was getting "high!!", not realizing that I was searching for a "high."
Ur post should b read; esp for anyone who is hoping on starting, or just looking for info on it. Thanks!!

These weren't the generic I got at CVs with the 50$ savings card. They were the name brand films, I got 14/8 mgs for $56.00.

Like I said not too shabby.
