geez it an addictive drug we know that and it costs too much money.
In my research I have done on suboxone I read that the opiate in it was never picked up as a successful drug on pain.. docs stopped writing scripts for it for pain due to patients not liking it for pain relief. then they started using it for withdrawl.
Suboxone is NOT a strong pain killer. It is hardly ever prescribed for pain.
