How lon does a person stay on suboxone?

It Depends: Each case is different. The length of time a person may need to stay on Suboxone may depend on several factors including the length of time the person abused opiates, how potent was the opiate abused, how high a daily dose, the route they used (i.e. Intravenous, intranasal, by mouth, etc) and finally, whether the person has a family history of addictions. Slowly tapering Suboxone is usually best.

No answer: Most of my patients are on it for 12-24 weeks. You need to address the underlying addiction issues via 12 step programs and/or counseling. You need to "remove" the negative influences that fed your addiction.
