Opiate Dependence
"I have been taking Suboxone for about 2 and a half years for chronic pain that has multiple causes, including Fibromyalgia, neuropathy/neuralgia and arthritis.  Suboxone is TERRIFIC!  I have had more consistent relief than from when I took Oxycontin plus Oxycodone, Vicodin, etc.  I have virtually no side effects, and I completely credit Suboxone for my return to work after about 2 years of being disabled.  There are only 2 downsides I have experienced that potential users will want to be aware of.  New, acute pain, such as a sprain or injury is not &quot;covered&quot; by Suboxone.  I&#039;ve also had an increase in tooth decay, but this is unfortunately an issue with all narcotics and drugs that can cause dry mouth.  Best of luck to all."
