A member asked:
What do you advise if i want advice on how to taper off suboxone and subutex with what i have left , how should i do this?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stopping Suboxone: Why do you want to stop the buprenorphine? It is probably helping you stay off dangerous opiates. You should discuss tapering with your doctor. It's a lot easier to stop after being tapered by your doctor. You have a risk of relapsing back on opiates within the next six months if you too abruptly quit. We can't adequately advise you more about that here on this site. Please seek a professional.
