Answer by Marian E
“Suboxone” is a drug used by recovering heroin addicts, prescribed by doctors, which helps with withdrawal symptoms. It is designed to be only used for a few days. THe drug itself is narcotic and addictive, that is why people are prescribed for only a short period of time. To stay on it long is starting another addiction, similar to using methadone.
