I have been researching and trying to learn more about suboxone...not planning on taking it but there are so many questions about it..I asked my pain mgt doctor at work today as he is licensed to prescribe it...and he said it is a good alternative for some and depends on the situation...he is also an ex-addict himself and is very cautious and knowledgable about medications..I have found that many doctors are not.... he referred me to this article I posted it in my journal as I found it simple to read and informative
