Still more buprenorphine confusion

I doubt there has ever been an opiate drug that was more poorly understood by it's users.  In one of your posts you write that suboxoxone absorbsion is from 50-90%.  Is this from measuring blood levels?  Also, hairysoda writes in a previous post that he changed from 4amps of buprenx to 12 mg of suboxone.  Correct me if I am wrong, but is'nt this an almost 10 fold increase in dosing?  Yet you never mention this in spite of the fact he is asking about getting off the drug totally. What is a high dose? What is a low dose?  Are there any long term side effects with use over many years?  Is buprenorphine addictive and at what dose?  I have been using buprenophine for almost 6 months now and no-one has been able to answer even the most basic of questions.

Any information beyond the usual press releases would be most helpful.

Thanks

To maintain a person's opioid dependent state for whatever reason is maintenance.....physically dependent state.  I don't think that was an issue, though.  I didn't think maintenance would be an ambiguous topic.  There are issues surrounding it.  There are different reasons for being maintained.  But, what is maintenance?  What is a happy meal?
