Does anyone have any tips on treating the headaches that goes along with the suboxone? I have had chronic pain issues my whole adult life. I have been very surprised that the suboxone helps my pain very much. I just can't stand these headaches.

Hello, Cj! How are you? I'm sorry about the headaches.

Have you tried any nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories, if your doctor approves of you taking them, such as Advil or Aleve?

Since you're on Suboxone, other narcotics won't work, but many people get relief with NSAIDs.

The FDA lists their typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, stomach irritation and increased risk of bleeding.

Does anyone else have any suggestions?
