Yes, this would be something used for addiction, it is a new medication called Suboxone, here's an image of the pill:

It contains 8mgs of Buprenorphine, which is a narcotic pain med, but it can help treat addiction because it does not act on the pleasure receptors and provide the high and euphoria like other narcotics. It also contains an opiate agonist, 2mgs of Naloxone.
That said, however, yes, you are right to worry about children or even a pet finding and ingesting this, since it is still a narcotic, in cases of extreme pain, it can be used to provide relief when other options have been exhausted, so thus, you can OD on this just like any other narcotic.
If he still has these around the house, he needs to be very careful with them and make sure they don't lay around where they can put children or pets in danger, or he needs to dispose of them if he is no longer using them.
It is Suboxone- used to treat opiate addiction (as in heroin,oxycodone,vicodin etc..) very dangerous unless a doctor gives them as you MUST already test positive for opiates and have a high tolerance! Very strong medication. Like taking 10-20 pills!at once ! not for children!!!!!!!!!!careful.
Yes these pills are Suboxone, I know because I'm on them myself for opiate addiction. I was in a really bad car wreck years ago, and the doctors were more than happy to shove multiple types of narcotics down my throat, and for waaay longer than I needed to be on em. This medication is used not only to slowly wing you off opiates, but it also given fro chronic pain. You can get high from it, but after a while you get to where you HAVE to have it just to function. And before you know it, you're hooked on em. I recommend that you approach your son slowly and with care. If he's a hostile teen, like most are, lol, nothing you can say will help. Talk to him about seeing a doc. Not just to get put on em, but if he's hooked already, you can get him in a program that will wing him off of em. Warning though, they are VERY expensive. But worth it. And it's the only medicine that you can buy 1 at a time at the pharmacy, if needed. I wish the best for you and your son. Just remember: Proceed with caution!
