Hey, man.......you are just now experiencing the release from the cravings.  Give suboxone treatment at least 6 weeks and then walk away.  I started with 8 mgs. 2 weeks, then 2mgs. in a.m. and 2mgs. in p.m., then maintained the 2mgs. daily for the last two weeks.  For me, it was a miracle drug.  I spent 4 years lost in a narcotic haze. Suboxone and the desire to really quit for good got me through it.  Hang in there.  I, personally, don't understand how people get addicted to suboxone.  There's no rush or nod although i've heard it said it does have a slight pain-relieving component in it.  I dunno.  Wish you the best. Keep us posted.

The RECKITT BENCKISER patient assistance program offers free medication to people who otherwise cannot afford their medications.  Patients must meet financial and other program specific criteria to be eligible for assistance.

I was on Sub for 21 days and have had problems since my last 'crumb' and that was 35 days ago.  I wish you the best in your quest to get clean ---  but I know that Sub is one very wicked master ---- much worse than most of our DOC and doesn't want you to let it go.  Hope you can find a way to get off of it before it really grabs hold of you.  I felt great until I decided to quit Sub.  Good luck to you.
