Suboxxone has few side effects when administered correctly.

Your comment is one of the few that is compassionate and is trying to understand how we can save lives and help people recover their lives,

My cat was on buprenorphine for a week or so this spring - seriously. She was recovering from surgery to remove a cherry pit size bladder stone - can you imagine something that large in an animal that small?

She seems to have made a complete recovery. I say seems because the cystotomy was only two weeks after she had, had eight molars extracted - rampant gingivitis - and the cystotomy was followed by a bladder infection.

Grim times. :-(

I participated helping with a program for addicts using methadone in a tapering down dose for 3 days followed by inpatient or outpatient counseling....

we'd like to think positive but the success rate was very very small...

The only thing I hate worse than kommiefornians is libertarian trash. Kommiefornians infect civilization. Libertarians infect FR. You disgust me.

What’s the Difference between Subutex and Suboxone? ...Suboxone contains both buprenorphine and naloxone, whereas Subutex contains only buprenorphine. [Subutex vs Suboxone]
Thanks Olog-hai.

Yeah - 30 years clean and sober and I know nothing - I've seen many die because of treatment center after treatment center and relying on "substitutes" as a long-term strategy.

The ones who live longest tend to get with the program by jumping in with both feet, using "medical science" to get through the weaning process and developing a solid relationship with God and helping others with similar problems....I've attended half a dozen funerals from Methadone ODs and that's just the ones I got close to.

Everyone trying to recover has about a 1,000 similarities to others in the same straits and they also have enough personality differences that they have to find what works for them - but they have to be willing to work their asses off instead of trusting their lives to long-term drug replacement regimens - it keeps up the ingrained habit of taking something on a regular basis to keep from withdrawal.

Good luck with your own recovery - hope it is long and prosperous.

Yeah, they will let them die still, but make a few bucks at it.
