Suboxone is an FDA approved medication for office based treatment of opiate addiction. It reduces opiate withdrawal symptoms and cravings during the treatment of pain killer addiction.

My daughter took the suboxone film during her first 3 days of withdrawals from the Roxis she was abusing. She has been able to discontinue use much more easily with it than that little blue devil pill. It does work, but not advisable except under doctor supervision as it can be abused too.

And again......he's getting them off the street. Please forgive me for seemingly sounding so harsh, but your husband doesn't or isn't ready for help of any kind. IMHO.....let him live in motel to motel. Let him deal with his issue. Let him fall. The more you break it the worse it's going to be on him and yourself because he won't stop and you'll only suffer along with him.
