Suboxone No Longer Works Like It Did Before

If you keep going back to DOC and suboxone, it will take more of the subs to feel relief. Why is that?

It is normal for your body to get used to anything that you ingest for a long period of time, and for it to eventually stop working as well for you, so you require a dosage adjustment, according to the NIH.

It doesn't happen to everyone and the time frame can vary from person to person in those that experience it.

The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation.

Is there anything else I can help with?
