Suboxone Strips Vs Pills

Updated

Maybe im crazy but i don't like the strips, i just don't feel they work as well as the pills. I never ran short with the pills, but the strips i seem to take more. Anyone else feel this way? My dr said she'll only prescribe the strips and it's all in my head.

Hello, Terisita! How are you?

You're not the only one that has said this, it just seems that different formulations work better for different people.

However, if you stuck with the strips at the amount you're supposed to take, then your body would likely adjust after a week or so.

The only other suggestion I can make if you're not happy is that you try to find a different doctor.

Does anyone else have any suggestions?

Hi, I,m the other way around. I like the strips better then the pills I agree with post above. You will get used to them. Just take your prescribed dose when your suppose to and in a week or so you shouldn,t notice any difference. It just takes time. One thing I like about the strips is that if you want to taper down there easier to cut in equal sizes. Good luck.

Yes I am totally with you on that! So glad I'm not the only one who thinks the pills are much better than the strips!

I found that it depends on the type of pills they are. Rhodes Suboxone tablets seem to be superior to the strips for me. I'm going to have my doctor switch me as soon as I can find out what pharmacy they come from in my area.
