The problem with that is they become addicted to the suboxone instead. They been using that for a few years here. My mother was on it for pain management cuz tge doctors got her hooked on the percocets and shit. If she was 10 minutes late for the appointment shed start feeling like shit.withdrawals would start.
Stay away from the "miracle drugs" best way is cold turkey. Smoke some weed if needed.many of my friends are addicts.the clean ones say weed helped them tremendously with the detoxing.
Here,instead of being addicted to this horrible street drug that doesnt benefit us.take this totally legal,totally free miracle addiction that makes us money.
I agree. I went through a nightmare with my daughter over that. So many rehabs won't take them until they have detoxed. Detox places won't take them until they are down to 30mg. They had my daughter on 125mg.
Sorry for jumping in late on the thread here, but it's a good one that should be talked about and I thank OP for bringing it up, but especially you guys for the insight.
Personally have no experience with opiods (thank God - they would have undoubtedly killed me as they did my friends), but I've been following Dr. Drew Pinsky for many years. Some of you may know him as money grabbing celebrity doctor, which he is, but he's also a very competent and compassionate addiction medicine specialist. He's said for decades the same thing you all are saying about the dangers of replacement treatments. They have their place but, unfortunately, like many treatments are only as good as the doctor in charge. And I'm sure those of us with firsthand experience know that finding a competent doctor is like a needle in a hay stack - no pun intended.
Thanks for sharing. It's extremely important people struggling with addiction know these facts about possible treatments.

I have seen fist hand how suboxone prolongs addiction.
Same thing with the methadone.
