No. Suboxone only works one way - by dissolving it under your tongue. It is specially designed that way. If you try to snort, swallow, inject it, (etc.) it has an ingredient - naloxone (sp?) - that will render it useless. In fact, if you take it any of those ways you might actually kick-start yourself into withdrawal. When you dissolve it under your tongue it allows for the main ingredient (the opioid part) to be released into your body. But my question is - why would you want to snort it? Aren't you taking suboxone to rid yourself of that lifestyle? Or do you just like sticking things into your nose? If that's the case, try crushing and snorting Smarties candies. It would make just about as much sense and it would do just about as much good.

It may be true that you can in fact snort Suboxone, but whether or not it is good for you is another story. It comes in a certain form for a reason. If it was meant to be snorted, the prescription would come with a straw and in powder form. Doctors and pharmacists alike will tell you that you can't snort it for various health and safety issues. I personally think that patients are much more likely to take more than they need (overdose) when snorting.

You should take a look at this blog on "Can you get high snorting Suboxone?":

Whatever the case may be, you are asking about something that many people don't agree with doing. In the end you're going to do what you're going to do and all "we" can do is try to persuade you otherwise. I hope you make the right decision for yourself.
