Am not sure what you: Mean by not "reacting to medication normally." the Buprenorphine will have no effect on your other medications - adderal, Buspar (buspirone) and klonopin, so stopping it will not change anything either. It is an opioid, and doesn't change your reaction to the other medications in any way that I am aware of. I hope you are getting enough psychosocial support to remain off opiates. Good luck.

MAKES NO SENSE: What medication do you mean? It reacts to opiates so there should not be a problem with medications that do not have opiates. Stick with it and try to not relapse.
