Yes There Are Generic Suboxone (Page 4)
(Newest replies first)

Updated

there is a generic Suboxone out now. they begin shipping them to pharmacies the last week of February. also, if you have any type of insurance you will automatically get the generic suboxin. The doctor has no say in whether you get the name brand or generic really. even if he writes a prescription for suboxone, the pharmacist will automatically give you the generics if you have insurance. if you don't have any insurance, you can ask the pharmacist to give you generics because they are cheaper. Plus, R and B has stopped making the name brand suboxin pills. they are only making be films now. So whenever your pharmacy runs out of the original suboxin, there will not be any more.

I Am taking the strips not the pill form. that could be why I have not seen them or heard about them. I would rather have the film instead of the pill form. they dissolve faster than the pill form..

I second the better absorbtion and they are a lot more solid which is good for the crumbling factor but bad cuz they are hard to half and quarter. Tried a pill cutter and it "shatters" to a few pieces. The taste is definitely a personal opinion. I don't like like the "new" orange flavor. It shouldn't even be called orange flavor and the pharmaceutical company says it has a pleasant orange taste but i beg to differ. I prefer the still yucky taste of original suboxone but thats all i prefer over the generic version. Strangely generic is the same color though. All in all I am so glad the FDA finally realized what RB was all about and it boiled down to profit in the end. I hope the new amneal version sweeps the market so it is made in the US and keeps the profit in the US. Lord knows we need it.

yes, that information is correct. Actavis is 1 of the companies now producing a generic form of Suboxone. Amneal Pharmaceuticals is the other. I can tell you exactly what Amneals generic Suboxone looks like, as I am prescribed to it and I have one right in front of me! it is a round orange pill, with the imprint AN 415 on one side, and no imprint on the other. besides being round, the other difference I have noticed is that these pills are much, much harder. it is something that I happen to like because they don't break apart or crumble up as easily as the originals. Plus, I feel that they dissolve much better because of that too. they dissolve a little bit slower, but they don't turn into useless Suboxone flavored spit either. I feel they absorb a lot more efficiently because of that. the taste isn't nearly as bad as the original ones either. I have never seen the other generic suboxin, but I have heard from many people that it has a half moon imprint on one side and the numbers 155 on the other. they are a white round pill. I will try to upload a picture of my generic Suboxone.

@sean21,

Do you happen to know by any chance who the manufacturer is or what the new generic Suboxone is supposed to look like?

I came across a very brief article (shown below), stating the following:

"Actavis, Inc. has announced that it has received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on its Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) for Buprenorphine HCl and Naloxone HCl Dihydrate SL Tablets, 2 mg/0.5 mg and 8 mg/2 mg, the generic equivalent to Reckitt Benckiser Healthcare's Suboxone."

Ref: addictionpro.com/news-item/actavis-generic-suboxone-receives-fda-approval

However I have not seen much more information than this and am just curious as to how reputable that source is. Thanks for sharing any feedback!
