Information Request about Short-Term Suboxone
Readers know that because of the high relapse rate for people with opioid dependence, I am a fan of long-term buprenorphine treatment, sometimes referred to as ’maintenance.’   As an effort to keep myself from becoming dogmatic, I’m seeking information about the experiences people have had with short-term buprenorphine, used either as a detox, or to facilitate starting [...] (Source: Suboxone Talk Zone)

Urine Drug Testing on Suboxone
A recent exchange with a reader: I have been on buprenorphine for 5 yrs.  Recently my doctor stated that my u/a t looked like I have been ‘loading my meds.’  He said my levels where ‘backwards’ and that would happen if I took just a few doses just before my appt.   My doc had me [...] (Source: Suboxone Talk Zone)

Limits on Suboxone Coverage by State or Insurer. Info Needed.
Just a short request tonight. I need help gaining an understanding of how buprenorphine/Suboxone is covered, across geography, insurance carriers, and state Medicaid agencies. Please write to me and share what you know.  Does your state limit coverage for buprenorphine to a specific length of time?  Have you appealed that limit?  Did you win or [...] (Source: Suboxone Talk Zone)

Wasting Resources on Suboxone
Readers of this blog know that I have often questioned whether there is any clinical difference between Suboxone and generic buprenorphine.  Naloxone is an opioid-blocking chemical added to buprenorphine, supposedly in order to reduce intravenous diversion of the medication.  The combination of buprenorphine plus naloxone is branded as Suboxone. I’ve pointed out over the years [...] (Source: Suboxone Talk Zone)

Does Suboxone Cause SIDS?
In a recent Google search about Suboxone and pregnancy, one of the top links included the frightening statement that Suboxone and buprenorphine have been linked to SIDS or sudden infant death syndrome, commonly called ‘crib death.’ The statement was from a health forum where a woman wrote about taking Suboxone during pregnancy.  She wrote that her [...] (Source: Suboxone Talk Zone)

Q/A – Am I in depression denial? Read explanation?
You guys might also have this question so I’m posting it here with a good answer too. It comes from ‘Audie89′ who asks: I’m 22 years old, and until I was 18…my social skills were painfully awkward. Finally, however, I came out of my shell. I got into the nightclub/rave scene and began working as a promoter for the biggest nightclub in the US while attending a university. I had tons of friends, I dated some gorgeous girls, and I loved going out and having a good time. Life was good. After 1 1/2 years, however, I started getting into prescription painkillers (namely oxycodone). I was in wa...

An Answer to the Question: I have a really serious concern! I am on suboxone?
I thought I’d post this question from Ashley since a lot of people seem to be asking it lately: which has helped me stay sober off of heroin for the past year and a half. I have begun to taper off of the suboxone, but it has given me serious constipation. I know that I am not ready to be completely off of suboxone but, I have tapered off somewhat. The problem is I got really bad constipation from the medication. My dr. told me I need to be on a laxative with a stool softener while I am taking the suboxone to prevent the constipation, but I feel as if the laxative is making me lose to much weight and I don’t hav...
