The correct drug name is Suboxone, it couples an opiate pain med with Naloxone, that neutralized opiates, to prevent people from abusing other meds, or from trying to abuse the Suboxone while they are under treatment.
It does have many benefits for people suffering addiction or dependence, you taper your dose up slowly, until you find the appropriate level to handle your withdrawals and cravings for other drugs, then after a period of time, as decided by the doctor, which can vary depending on the person's level of addiction or dependence, you taper back off until you are drug free.
The problem is that this cannot be prescribed by just any doctor, it can only be prescribed by certain doctors who are specially trained and licensed to provide treatment with it, in certain clinics throughout the US. Then of course, there are a limited number of these clinics, and a limited number of treatment slots in each clinic.
Here's more information on Suboxone for you:
