Do they make an orange Subutex? Is that available?
I've been getting subs for a long time now but I've always gotten the real small ones with the 8 on one side or the big round white ones, well yesterday I went to the clinic and went to pick my med up at the pharmacy and they have me these football shaped light orange pills with a 153 on one side and a pretty D on the other, I am so upset these taste awful while others have a sweet taste. And they are so big, I can't believe I'm stuck with 2 weeks worth of these things and the worst part is I really can't take them when I try I throw up because I'm pregnant and I already have severe morning sickness so when I try to take them it makes it 10 times worse!!!
Are any of you located in Washington Pa area, i need a pharmacy to fill my subutex script. everyone i have went to says they cant take any more patients
Not to my knowledge. The only orange, round Buprenorphine SL tablets I have ever seen are Suboxone. The only Orange Subutex that I have only seen are the orange oval ones made by Actavis.
I have just received the same orange 8 mg 153 Subutex from MFG Actavis Elizabeth...I haven't taken any yet becaus I am not sure what to expect as far as changes, I have been taking the MFG Hi-Tech 8 mg Subutex for a year and a half. Des anyone have any experience taking the new Actavis 8 mg Subutex switching from other brands...

Can you post a picture of them if you can. Thanks!
Just for added confirmation - yes, it is true that they do make an orange oblong/oval generic 8mg Subutex (Buprenorphine hydrochloride) sublingual tablet with 153 on one side and the Actavis' half moon logo on the other.
This tablet also contains the following set of inactive ingredients (binders/fillers), which may be different than what you might've been used to taking from previous manufacturers:
citric acid anhydrous + crospovidone + FD & C yellow #6 HT aluminum lake + lactose monohydrate + magnesium stearate + mannitol + pregelatinized starch (maize) + povidone + sodium citrate dihydrate
I don't know about your situation, but sometimes when patients switch between different tablets they may get a completely different set of binders and fillers that affect how well or how much of a particular medication is absorbed/metabolized by the body. Its cases like this where you might build a personal preference as to which brand/generic works best for you.
Hope this helps!
I just got my script filled this month for subutex. I used to get the white tablet with an arrow and 8 on each side. Today I got 8mg Orange oblonged shaped with 153 and a moon on it. They are pretty big compared to what I was getting. Same thing except they just don't dissolve as quickly and have a different taste. So apparently they do make orange ones, just found out today.
