Suboxone has never given me pain relief. Was given it for opioid withdrawal I take a third of a 2mg every other day. No matter what I can’t go below. The restless leg syndrome is unbearable
A good friend of mine who worked for SAMHSA suggested that while the world is in a tailspin and it’s helping what is the need to get off. I never crave opioids. The major issue for me other than cost (psychiatrist doesn’t accept insurance for suboxone scripts) is that my tongue is a mess from taking it sublingual

@leh09, I too, am on Suboxone, 1/2 of an 8-2mg. tablet. What problems are you having under your tongue from the medication? Also, since on the Suboxone, have you had a need for an opioid for real pain relief? Suboxone doesn’t provide any relief for me either and I fear the day when/if I am in real need. Thoughts?
