Hello, Dawn! How are you?

Subutex also contains a narcotic opiate, so it's side effects are similar to those of the Methadone. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

If your dosage is properly calculated, then you shouldn't experience any withdrawal effects or cravings, you doctor should know how much of the Subutex will be needed to prevent any issues.

Is there anything else I can help with?
