I'm glad to finally see some that is smarter than the Dr.'s like you said "if you are taking Subtext, pain pills ARE not gonna be as good" so why waste your time & $ on pain pill when Subtext is all in 1 stay straight and don't have to deal with headaches and getting sick from naloxone anf Subtext is cheaper at pharmacy. I'm 47yrs old been through the opiate thing been taking Subtext for @ 5yrs now and would take a pain pill if you gave it to me but I can't get Dr. @ home to write me Subutex so I'm gonna have to go outta town I guess. I mean I know what helps me and what makes me sick but Dr.'s @ home won't hear it so I'm open to any suggestions

Girl I have those problems and then some with suboxone. And my dr said the only way I can get subutex instead is if I can't breathe when I take suboxone. Like nothing else is even an issue, it doesn't matter where I'm from, if you break out in hives, tongue swells, vomit, migrane, any of that.

I don't understand what the big deal is about, like if a person would rather have one over the other and is complying with their treatment then they should get the option to tell their Dr "hey I'd rather take this one, it's got less side effects for me". Where I'm from I know some ppl go out of state just because the laws and the Dr's here are ridiculous and now they are even making pregnant women take suboxone films. I told my PA I hate the thought of anything orange flavored. Now after taking the films but I've been prescribed both subutex and suboxone and this last time when I got switched just a few weeks and I saw major changes, the biggest issue being having the stomach issues!!! Good luck with that.

If you’ve never abused drugs then why are you prescribed suboxone? I’m just wondering because you keep saying you’ve never abused drugs.

Because you can get a dependence using prescribed opiates taking them as directed. Thats how it went for me.

Thats not true at all The buprenorphine stops other opioids/opiates working.The Naloxone is there so people dont abuse the medicine i.e injection
