Congratulations! Secondly where do you live.? Technically the AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE ACT covers treatment for addiction. Your Insurer is REQUIRED to offer this coverage and PRE-EXISTING conditions may NOT BE USED to disqualify you!

I'm looking for a suboxone matinence program, i was living in currituck nc, but have since moved, i'm now in franklin va. i also dont have insurance, is there a way for me to go that isn't going to cost an arm and a leg?

Accepted Answer

You can find out who has the special license needed to prescribe suboxone at www.suboxone-directory.com. Some of the prescribers are part of agencies that serve people with chemical dependencies. They may be able to steer you to medical coverage for suboxone or most certainly for treatment with Methadone.

Question 6

Trying to find a doctor in indiana who will accept insurance for suboxone only ones he can find are clinics who want cash or doctors who have very lon?

Accepted Answer

Ask for a list of doctors/addiction centres where you can be treated urgently. Or use the resources of mental health or crisis. They will have a 24 hour number. All the best.

Question 7

I am traveling with husband while in school again and need a suboxone doctor who i can see virtually until we decide where we are going to relocate. i have thought about switching to methedone because of lack of insurance. can you help?

Accepted Answer

Personally I woud not prescribe a controlled substance without seeing the patient in person (mostly retired). I would encourage you to stick with Suboxone if you can possibly afford it. Methadone is a nasty drug. Sub. does come generic for some relief in cost. The Suboxone website lists licensed doctors and their locations. Hopefully, one is near and will help.

Question 8

Need help with how much of my first suboxone dose i should take having such a low tolerance to any type of medication. please help!

Accepted Answer

If you are appropriately starting buprenorphine treatment, there should be a doctor who has received a special waiver (with training) who knows how to do it, and that doctor is the one you should be questioning. If you are taking it without prescription, you are putting yourself at risk of precipitated withdrawal if you have recently been taking other opioids. Talk to doctor/pharmacist.

Question 9

How much time does suboxone stay in your urine one 8mg strip?

Accepted Answer

It is a very long-acting and very slowly metabolized drug, and its metabolites (norbuprenorphine) stay even longer if they are being looked for.  Most drug screens do not test for it, and there are special kits that do. Confrimatory tests (GC/MS, LC/MS/MS) should detect it in any case, and depending on where they set their sensitivity (like 50 ng/ml) can detect it for 7-10 days.

Question 10

How much time do i need to wait to take suboxone after taking methadone?

Accepted Answer

Long you were on Methadone and on what dose. Suboxone (buprenorphine) will precipitate withdrawal in people who are dependent on other opioid drugs. Methadone is very long-acting, and precipitated withdrawal can occur even days after your last dose if you were on Methadone long-term. Tapering Methadone down to 30 mg or less, and waiting 2-3 days (until withdrawal is present) is safest way.
