Suboxone is, in fact, a narcotic. Many people come to detox thinking that Suboxone (whose active ingredient, buprenorphine, for a reason,”rhymes with morphine”) is merely a “blocker” of narcotics. But it is a narcotic itself. Substituting one narcotic-addiction for a prescription-narcotic addiction might have some temporary benefit, but people should be aware that this newer narcotic, prescribed as Suboxone, will have its own issues related to narcotic-withdrawal later on. your narrator and host: Randall S.
