I cannot say enough great things about bup (generic Subutex, this brand name is no longer being manufactured since the introduction of Suboxone)
I continue to shout it from the rooftops how amazing this med has been in my recovery, taking away the nasty withdrawal symptoms along with the ever-invasively destructive urge to abuse pain meds...going on 14 days abuse free and man...life is great! My DOC was oral opiates, to facilitate life during a shoulder injury IN THE BEGINNING...to be more exact: 120-200mg of Norco or Percocet, 8mg Dilaudid and 500mg Tramadol daily...just because it felt good even after my shoulder had healed (abuse territory).
I had a one month stint utilizing methadone (free) in a previous recovery attempt but even 10mg was too "heavy" for me - I slept all day and felt like a zombie. There was no way I was going to be able to function on the stuff.
I happily pay $12 a day now to dose my 8mg bup. Cheers to infinite weeks of recovery !
