Saboxin (its Suboxone) (Page 2)
UpdatedIt's an orange pill that dissolves under the tongue that has a cross on one side. Goes from 2mg to 8mg. I have been on this for 2 years to help in my addiction to opiates.
From what I've heard most people figure they'll be on Suboxone for life. It's like any other chronic disease that you need medicine for. Would it help if you see it that way? That said, I was on OxyContin 80mg 3x per day for chronic pain after being hit by an 18-wheeler. My doctor retired but before that he wrote me a prescription - enough to wean off. It took months and at first I felt the physiological need, but slowly I weaned off. It's not the same with addiction, so I'd be very careful if I were you. Maybe talk to your primary care doctor to see if they can help you reduce the dose. I wouldn't recommend talking to anyone at the Suboxone clinic because it's more lucrative for them if you need it. The more patients the more funding they get. Pretty messed up, but that's how it works. Good luck.
