Opiate Dependence
"Suboxone saved my life. I was a heavy heroin user for about two years, about $200 dollars a day. I was about to lose everything, and decided it was time to stop this downward spiral. I had tried suboxone before but wasn&#039;t ready to commit. I found a doctor who prescribed it for me and was given about 10-12mg a day. My estimated stop date would have been early November of 2007, I tapered down and made a commitment to myself to stop as early as I could, I took my last pills of Suboxone July 4 2007, and have been clean ever since! It truly saved my life. And a little FYI the mild withdrawals Suboxone gave me were absolutely NOTHING compared to trying to come off heroin or oxycontin."
