Buprenorphine. Orange pill that you stick under your tongue. Helps stop withdrawal symptoms of opiates. It works by tricking your brain into thinking it has an opiate, by putting opioid receptors back into your brain. DO NOT CRUSH OR TRY TO SHOOT THESE UP, or you'll go into immediate withdrawal.

I nicknamed it yellow pledge... It is exactly what it tastes like. it can be snorted and works as well as putting it under your tongue but trust me, within days of snorting it you will get sensitive to it's bittersweet taste after puking and prefer to put it under your tongue. Take caution when putting it under your tongue. To make sure you get its entire worth, try not to move your tongue around or even talk for that matter and use as least spit as possible. For a full 8 milligram to desolve, if done correctly, will take about an hour....
I hate talk like it's the cure for opiate dependency, it is simply another vice, another soul attaching addiction consumed drug. If you are prescribed and truely use the drug, do not tell anyone you may think would want it when your are going threw a two week independent phase where you only need a small piece to perform daily. I say this for suboxone is addicting and you will be short on your script when the doctor wants to take a look at it.

Suboxone is a drug prescribed to help people who want to quit shooting up heroin, or the babies who are afraid of needles and snort it, or the really big fat babies who get addicted to pills.

Suboxone can only be prescribed by DEA-certified doctors who are not allowed to treat more than 100 patients at any one time. Congress created the Suboxone program as an experiment and alternative to extant treatments for opiate addicts. Suboxone is not a drug which one should take experimentally.

Those who claim they get high from Suboxone are fooling themselves. The "real deal" is that these people so desperately want to be seen getting high so as to impress their friends that they imagine they're high so they can tell everyone they're high.

I've taken 8 mg of Suboxone daily for 2½ years after a heroin addiction I was fortunate to survive. Suboxone has never gotten me high. It does not get anyone high.

Not that I recommend it, but try shooting up actual heroin sometime and you'll very quickly realize that Suboxone does not get you high. Any high you experience from Suboxone is imaginary. Get real, people.

To summarize for those who still don't get it -- Suboxone does not get you high. It is not "cool" to acquire it because the more it's found on the street, the less likely it is that Congress will extend the suboxone program, and the more likely it is that real addicts will not get the treatment they need. If you're that selfish then you should probably look into getting a life.

I currently take suboxone and i will tell you the real deal about them. As stated above, yes suboxone is buprenorphine and naltrex (or Narcan)in a 4:1 ratio. Our brains have 3 different receptors that accept opiates, delta kappa & mu. Mu seems to be the receptor that causes the body to become dependant on different opiate substancs. Since suboxone is a "partial-opiate" it only acts on delta and kappa receptors, thus relieving the users withdraw symptoms. The Naltrex(or Narcan) which blocks opiates from binding to receptors, stops them from working. Naltrex(narcan) has a half-life of 2-3 hours... which means it is active in your body for 6 hours, 8 hours just to be safe. Since i take suboxone daily i know you can take an opiate the same day. For example: I wake up at 10am take my suboxone and by 8pm that night I can take an oxy and not go through any withdraw. In reguards to this drug not having a market on the street and the do not crush warning above, that is all BS. I have lived in 3 major citys and have found markets for suboxone in all of them. Also, if you crush up a suboxone and snort it, it will be stronger than taking it sublinguily and you will not withdraw that is a myth, believe me i have done it. I do not inject anything so i will not address that issue. Party safely please people.

A medication recently introduced onto the addiction resource market for use against opiate/opioid, alcohol, and/or tobacco use.
Suboxone has, by far, been the most effective resource I've had in defeating my alcohol, and heroin use.

suboxone, as most say is a drug prescribed to help withdrawl off herion, but ive come to find out thatif you are no longer doing herion, (several months or more clean) suboxone can be used to continue getting high with out the addictiveness of herion. i recomend not taking more than 2 mg for the first time or you will be puking as you would doing dope the first few times. but suboxone gives you the same affect....warm sensation in your body, nodding out, pinned pupils, and slightly itchy...as as herion would do. so if you are still into gettin messed up but can no longer or no longer want to do herion, i suggest suboxone...which aslo will not come up in a drug test!
i can't do herion anymore so i pop a suboxone every once in a while

The slight back and forth rocking done by someone who has just taken a dose of Suboxone. Sometimes it involves sitting in a chair, falling asleep sitting up or just swaying gently while standing up.
Guy #1: Dude, check out that girl over there. She's just rocking back and forth next to the door to the Clinic...
Guy #2: Oh, that's my friend Amy, she's on Suboxone to kick her Heroin habit. She takes that shit and is basically in a trance for a while.
Guy #1: So... she's doing the Suboxone Sway?
Guy #2: nice one!
