What is suboxone?

For Opiate Addiction: Suboxone contains Buprenorphine plus a short acting opiate blocker called naloxone. Buprenorphine is a semi-synthetic partial opiate agonist. That means, it has very unique properties compared with other opiates like hydrocodone and oxycodone. Suboxone can take away the cravings for opiates so the addict can work on figuring out why he or she takes opiates in the first place. Suboxone saves lives.

Blocker : Buprenorphine blocks the mu receptor in the brain's pleasure center. This receptor is responsible for the withdrawal symptoms coming off opiates. By blocking it, the Buprenorphine fools the receptor into being satisfied. Then there are no withdrawal symptoms and few high feelings. Slowly, over time, reducing the Buprenorphine dose allows for discontinuation of the dangerous opiate effects.

A great product: it is a medication that can help you abstain from illegal opiates. There are many other uses for this medication, but you need to talk to the person who can prescribe it. The best results are when this medication is used along with other treatments
