+1-530-334-8684Suboxone is a brand-name medicine that combines buprenorphine and naloxone. Buprenorphine is an opioid pain reliever that is also known as a narcotic. Naloxone counteracts the effects of opioid medications, such as pain relief and feelings of well-being, which can lead to addiction.
Suboxone helps treat narcotic addiction. Do not use this drug as a pain reliever. You can buy Suboxone online with a prescription. A generic version of Suboxone is also available. There are two types of generic versions: an oral tablet and an oral film. The films and the tablets are sublingual, which means they dissolve when placed under your tongue. You can also dissolve the film by placing it between your gums and cheek.
Do not use Suboxone if you are allergic to buprenorphine or naloxone (Narcan). To make sure Suboxone is safe for you, tell your doctor if you have ever had:
If you use Suboxone while pregnant, your baby may become dependent on the drug. This can result in life-threatening withdrawal symptoms in the baby after birth. Babies born dependent on opioids may require medical care for several weeks. If you are breastfeeding, tell your doctor before using Suboxone. Inform your doctor if you notice the nursing baby is tired or breathing slowly.
Take Suboxone as directed by your doctor. Follow all the directions on your prescription label and read all medication guides. Do not use Suboxone in larger doses or for longer than recommended. Inform your doctor if you have an increased desire to use this medication.
Before using a Suboxone sublingual film, drink water to moisten your mouth. This makes it easier for the film to dissolve. Apply one film to the inside of your right or left cheek. If your doctor recommends that you take two movies at once, one on the inside of one cheek and the other on the knowledge of the other.
While the film dissolves, do not chew or swallow it because the medicine will not work either. Place Suboxone sublingual tablets under the tongue until they dissolve. Do not give Suboxone to anyone else, especially someone with a history of drug addiction or abuse.
Misuse of this medicine can lead to addiction, overdose, or death. Keep the mixture in a safe place where no one else can get to it. It is illegal to sell or distribute Suboxone. However, you can order Suboxone online with a prescription. You may not use the same dose if you switch between buprenorphine-containing medicines.
You could have symptoms of withdrawal if you abruptly stop taking Suboxone. Consult your doctor about how to stop taking Suboxone safely. Never crush or break a Suboxone sublingual tablet to inhale the powder or mix it into a liquid to inject the drug into a vein. This practice can result in death.
When opioid use is reduced or stopped during the induction phase, Suboxone can help minimize withdrawal symptoms. During the maintenance phase, doctors give Suboxone continuously at a stable dose for a period ranging from several months to more than a year.
