Suboxone
® (
buprenorphine and naloxone) is a type of opioid medication used to treat opioid dependence. As a
controlled substance, the drug has strict rules and regulations relating to its sale and use. The medication is also a type of narcotic and has a potential for abuse and physical dependence. However, because it only partially activates opioid receptors in the body, it is less likely to be abused than other opioids.
The dosage your healthcare provider recommends will be based on several factors, such as the type and dosage of other opioid medications you have taken, other existing medical conditions you have, and other medications you are taking.
