Suboxone is a combination of the drugs Buprenorphine and Naloxone.  The Naloxone prevents this drug from being used intravenously b/c it causes withdrawal.

The Buprenorphine is the main drug.  It is a partial opiate that has similar effects to other opiates, but does not produce the high that Oxycodone or Vicodin are capable of.  It has a ceiling effect meaning that 32 mgs is as high as you can go.  Any pills after that will do nothing.

Suboxone also blocks the effects of other opiates.  If you take morphine or a similar drug, you will not get the euphoric high you normally would.

This drug is used to ease the withdrawals of regular opiate addiction.  It can also be used as a maintenance drug to help chronic relapsers live a structured life without the waxing and waning of other drugs.

Suboxone can only be prescribed by certain physicians who have completed a class on this drug.  If you google SUBOXONE you will find information on this drug and locate physicians near you.

If you can provide more information about your situation, we would be happy to help.
