I noticed I get a headache, every now and then. It it's different from a regular tension headache. But definitely not a migraine. It last a couple hours. Sometimes half the day. I suffer from migraines. I assure you it's not. There are different levels of migraines, but they are all debilitating. Unfortunately migraines, if you've ever had one you'll know. And only a certain type of medication helps. I have yet to find something for the suboxone headache. Ive tried ibprophen, advil, caffeine.. Even migraine medication. None of them work. I suggest if they continue. I would talk to your suboxone doctor. I've never had one last for several days. Something in the suboxone isn't working for you. Good luck

yes hun, headaches are very common when first starting suboxone...they WILL eventually go away, i promise...i know it is a very common side effect of sub...hang in there.  it is ok to take 400-600 mgs of ibuprofen and it does work...of course if you cant take ibuprofen, tylenol may help also...
hang in there and take some advil lay down and just relax for a bit...it does help...
if you ever have any questions about sub, just send me a message, ok?
take care and good luck!

Have you tried to lower your dose and see how you feel.  I have heared some people having headaches for the first few days but not this long.  Have you called your sub doctor and told her/him ? That would be your best bet.
