I have been a heroin addict for 20 years, I have on and off methadone for the whole length of my addiction, I was a I.V drug user, I was spending around 200.00 a day for my heroin habit. I got on methadone at a clinic. My daily dose 150mg. a day was 2.00 a day. Well, I recently moved from VA. to California and went to a clinic that provided me Suboxone. I really like it. I am on 3 strips a day and it really helps. Imagine my shock when I went to pick my script and it was 633.84!!!! How in the hell am I supposed to afford that? I am unemployed,conviced felon(so hard to find a job) and really worried. Thank God I had help to pay for my 30 day supply, but now I am having to consider going back on methadone because of the cost of the suboxone. Yea, they do give u the little "discount" card but for real, that's not a whole lotta help. I think It totally sucks that the drug company won't make a generic brand.I know there is Subutex(straigh bupernorphine) but my Dr. says that is for the inital withdrawl only then, you get put on Suboxone. I guess I have 3 months to figure it out. I applied to medacal, but the pharmacy said only a select few get qualified to have the Suboxone paid for WHAT'S A ADDICT TO DO?

I have been on generic subutex for 8 months now and it has saved my life. The only reason your doc wont give you the generic subutex is because you shot dope for so long. The problem is y9ur doc doesn't want to be liable for you shooting up the generic subutex. It doesn't have the nalaxone in it and plus doctors get huge kickbacks and perks for prescribing that medication. Send me an email and I may be able to help you out and get you in touch with people who care about your life and situation. Even though addicts don't usually have jobs they still get a lot of money in a lot of different ways. They figure you would do the same thing and that is why the price is so high. I have insurance through my company and just got 180. 8mg subutex mailed to me for $30. Without insurance it would have cost me about. $1500. Try selling cars at a dealership because some don't do background checks and wait until you get your insurance and while you are waiting find out what kind of insurance you will have and start calling doctors and tell them you are about to get your insurance and as long as they will prescribed generic subutex and you will find them..you just have to do somehomework. And this is serious life saving situations we are talking about here. Email me if you need some more info or whatever....... :)

If you look for a recovery program that is religion-based, sometimes they will help cover the costs depending on your financial situation. They care more about getting help to the people who are seeking it and don't want money to be the barrier holding you back from bettering yourself. I hope you find something that works for you. Good Luck!

Time for me to vilify greedy drug companies. Suboxone has helped me tremendously with a 20 pill/day percocet addiction ( following 5 brain surgeries to remove a tumor). I have been clean since the day I started treatment with suboxone. The cost per pill has increased from 5 to 8 dollars. Although the maker Reckitt Benckiser may be getting richer, they are making it impossible to afford, in effect denying treatment to many. Insurance companies are starting to implement review procedures that also deny coverage. I hope the folks at R-B enjoy their short-term gain while many addicts continue to suffer. One of the chief benefits of Suboxone treatment comes from the knowledge that ones supply is consistent. It's getting ton the point where some patients literally can buy only one day's supply at a time and it is cheaper to cop percocet on the street. I think the FDA needs to enforce accessibility standards on pharmaceutical companies that want to market life-saving medications. The dilemma is that while I continue to pay for Suboxone, I am helping to perpetuate the problem. Until their returns start to diminish, R-B will have no incentive to reduce their price.
Well, that was too long delayed and I'm glad to get nit off my chest.
If you're an addict and are considering Suboxone, I will tell you that it truly saved me and the hardest part was getting myself to the docs office 24 hrs. sober. While on it, you can improve your chances of success by learning sober patterns of behavior that you will continue with or without Suboxone. Eventually, normal coping skills also return and you will realize that you can manage completely on your own. But everyone must proceed at their own pace. Be very wary of anyone who tells you to adhere to standard timelines.

Look up NPS Processing and they have a card that costs $5 a month and that would save u a lot of money. I've tried all the discount cards out there and this company has the best. I used them for 3 months before I got insurance through work and they saved me a total of $550 over the three months. Good luck and God Bless

I just tried your website that you suggested and you are a liar. They cost exactly the same around 8.50 each pill or strip.

Try RX discount card - the site offers a discount card that will give you about 20% on that prescription and you can use it at your local pharmacy.

I am trying to find a Dr. as well that I can get suboxone from. I read all the comments what people are saying they are paying for to get this medication. But at this point to buy the pills off the street which my husband and I have to do and around here where we live a 10mg runs from 7 to 8 dollers apiece so what your spending in getting the drug to get off the opiate is what you would be spending in buying it. I would rather take the money for the pill to help me get off it then continue with the buying the pills for our addiction. Just a thought.

YES!!! HERE TO HELP

SUBOXONE PATIENT ASSISTANCE PROGRAM

I get my 8mg/2mg strips FREE! I filled out the Here To Help paperwork (provided by my Dr.) and attached a copy of my W4 (to verify I made less than 15k last year FY2011) Within 12 days of turning it in I received my Suboxone Here To Help Patience Assistance Program Insurance card in the mail. I went to Walgreens to pick up 90 and it cost me $0.00 !! Call the number in the post above or ask your Dr.
It's good for one year up to 24mg/day (90/mth).
Before I started on the strips I was getting generic Subutex from Sams Club.
It was $100 for a one Yr membership and the pills were about $1.90 ea. WORTH IT!!! At walgreens they were between $4-6 ea.
SO...VERY IMPRTANT...
SUBOXONE HERE TO HELP PROGRAM, PATIENCE ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (PAP)

or..

Sams Club for the CHEAPEST prices on generic Subutex.

Just wanted to say I found a treatment center to help that is close to me that will take my insurance and pay for the Suboxon. I do my intake Monday and do my detox there for 72 hours the same week. So happy that these pills won't be running my life anymore and I will have help. :)

Here in FL, the cost of suboxone tablets and films, is exteremly high. $12.49 per strip. You can always get one suboxone out at a time. Or two, or five. The more you get, the lower the price drops. But barely! They are expensive and the way I can almost guaruntee they look at it, is if you can afford a drug habbit everyday, then you should be able to pay for the medication to get clean. Stupid, but true! So to all you $7 and $8 complainers, lol, yes it sux but you are not alone and actually saving money compared to others around the US.
