Suboxone Verses Subutex (Top voted first)

Updated

Dear VerWon, I now know the difference between suboxone and subtext. But, why would one Dr. Choose one over the other? Is the suboxone used for addiction and subtext used for just pain?

Hello, Cats68! How are you?

As I said in my prior post, Suboxone includes Naloxone to prevent the abuse of other narcotics, while someone is being treated with it for addiction and that is exactly why it is usually preferred over Subutex.

Subutex is usually the choice when someone has a bad reaction to the Naloxone or is pregnant.

However, both can treat pain.

Does this clear it up for you? :-)

As for mself....I had major allergic reactions to generic suboxone pills as well as name brand and subutex. The only form of combination of meds was Suboxone in film form. Don't know why.... I just know ...it is what it is.
