A member asked:
I am pregnant and i am dependent on opiates. my physician had me on oxycodone for months. is "suboxone" the best way to detox while pregnant?

Suboxone: High doses of oxycodone is bad. Using opioids during pregnancy is bad. Subutex would be the best option not Suboxone.

No: it is contraindicated in pregnancy. Methadone will be the treatment of choice.
