Differences In Subutex 8mg

Updated

I've been on Subutex 8mg for approximately 4 years. And through this process I have noticed a difference in the manufacturing companies that make these tablets. I can't even dispute these comments because I have backed them up with people I know that take the same medication for purposes of addiction. First and foremost do not take this medication 4 any other use then what your doctor prescribed it for.
The number one clear favourites is the 54411 by West-Ward
And the worst ones are the little small white tablets with the arrow on one side and the number 8 on the other side. Those are just terrible. The 54411 is A+ and the BP is A-. The BP white tablets are almost the same as the 54411. And they are yearly a newer brand. When I fill my prescription up every month I have a pharmacy I go to, who knows me well, and knows the ones I like. They are extremely GREAT! Though before I found that Pharmacy I would go to Walgreens or Walmart. Walgreens carries the Activis orange oval tablets which are good. And Walmart sometimes have the 54411, or BP, or the small round tablets with the arrow. A year ago I tried them and they were terrible and that's why I would not go to Walmart no more because they are fussy and they make a big deal out of nothing. I told the pharmacist that the round small Arrow tablets are terrible and he told me they are all the same and I broke it down to him. Just because he's a pharmacist, he doesn't know more than me, when it comes to taking this particular medicine. and that is exactly what I told him I believe I hurt his feelings because he's a big bad pharmacist but the truth is the truth. I had a discussion with another pharmacist at Walgreens about the differences about valium vs xanax. I hurt her feelings too. I told her they both are benzodiazepines which we both know. I told her the difference in Xanax are for panic attacks instantly and they are stronger. Then I told her, Valium will help with extreme anxiety but it takes longer for it to kick in. And it helps with muscle spasm, and women that gets there period. For all you women out there that has a strong period, Trust me when I tell you, take the Valium! It will help you better than any over-the-counter. The pharmacist didn't know this. So educated her. I can't tell you for sure but I'm assuming she probably takes it. Now by no means, that I even know as close to what a pharmacy know! I am getting away from the original story. Though u dont have to always listen to the pharmacist about certain medications that agree with you better than the other. Here is another example. My wife had papillary carcinoma stage 3 cancer they removed her thyroid and it took years to get the proper dosing and the proper medicine. Brand Synthroid vs generic Synthroid. My wife needs brand Synthroid when she used generic form it's made her body out of whack. The T4 was not absorbing and converting into T3 with the generic Synthroid. Your body needs T3, that is what gives you the energy, no depression no weight gain and so forth. For years she has been battling the controversy of Synthroid. Now after three and a half years she is on Armour Thyroid medicine which has T4 and T3. After so many different blood tests and different endocrinologist they go by the book. And it frustrates me that a lot of them don't listen to their patients. My wife would say to the endocrinologist, that she doesn't feel well, shes gaining weight, no energy depressed. So a few times 3 different endocrinologist said go to a psychiatrist so you can be on depression medicine. Again the process was long, hard, frustrating, but after years, of battling the outcome was finally successful. She doesn't even take Synthroid. She takes Armour Synthroid, which has T4 and T3 combined. Because the regular Synthroid with the regular MCG dosage was not converting the T4 into T3 because her body was not absorbing it. There's many more other stories but again not all doctors and pharmacists know better than you, when it comes to certain medications, because we take them they don't for the most part. Please don't get it confused about their knowledge compared to my knowledge. They are certified, they went to school. I am a guinea pig, my wife was a guinea pig, some of you guys are guinea pigs but at least we know what works for us better than anyone except God.
