About Suboxone

Suboxone is a brand name, prescription medication that was designed to treat opioid addiction. Suboxone contains two ingredients, buprenorphine (an opioid) and the medication naloxone. When the effects of the two medications are combined, they can reduce cravings and improve chances of success during recovery.

Suboxone is classified as a Schedule III controlled substance in the United States meaning it has medical value but can also have the risk for addiction. Suboxone comes in dissolvable films along with tablets.

How Does Suboxone Work?

Suboxone works by helping patients manage the withdrawal symptoms while they are detoxing from opioids and/or alcohol. Suboxone is typically continued during recovery, helping to control cravings and withdrawal symptoms. Along with Suboxone treatment in Audubon, we also recommend our patients seek out therapy and peer-supported groups, these can help increase the chances of success as well.

Benefits of Suboxone Treatment

As mentioned above, Suboxone treatment is used to reduce the cravings and withdrawal symptoms that occur when an addict stops using opioids or alcohol. Suboxone can increase the chances of success when a patient is going through recovery.
