  • I meet certain income eligibility requirements

How do I apply for the Suboxone patient assistance program? 

Our application process is simple and straightforward. Begin by completing our enrollment application. It’s important to fill it out completely by detailing all medications you’re taking, including Suboxone. We’ll also ask for details about your household income, insurance, and your healthcare provider. This is essential information needed by the pharmaceutical manufacturers that ship your medication.

If we determine that you may be eligible for Suboxone assistance, we’ll handle the application process for you. This means that we will help to enroll you in the Suboxone patient assistance program. Once enrolled in the program, we’ll also request your Suboxone medication refills on your behalf for up to 1 year.

What is Suboxone?

Suboxone is a prescription medication used to treat opioid use disorder (OUD) in adults and adolescents over the age of 15. It can be used alongside other medical treatments as well as with psychological and social support. You usually take Suboxone as a tablet or a film you place under your tongue. The tablet or film dissolves and passes into your bloodstream.

Opioid use disorder is a condition where people become dependent on opioid drugs, like heroin, morphine, oxycodone, or fentanyl. You can experience an overwhelming desire to use the drugs and have distressing withdrawal symptoms when you don’t. OUD can significantly disrupt your life. It can make it hard to meet your obligations and can strain relationships. It can lead to illegal behaviors, like taking controlled drugs illegally, and it can damage your health.

Suboxone helps with OUD in two ways. It contains an opioid medication that can ease withdrawal symptoms and an ingredient that blocks the effects of opioids, including feelings of wellbeing. Used together, they can manage withdrawal and reduce feelings of dependence, helping you reduce and stop your opioid use.

Suboxone active ingredients

Suboxone contains two active ingredients, buprenorphine, and naloxone. 

Buprenorphine is an opioid, a medication that belongs to the same family as other drugs made from opioids, like heroin or oxycodone. When absorbed into your blood, it has a similar effect to these other opioid drugs. It attaches itself to areas in your body and brain called opioid receptors, reducing the pain signals they help to send. Because it acts like other opioid drugs, it can be used to treat opioid withdrawal symptoms. 

Naloxone is a drug that can block the effects of opioids like pain relief and feelings of wellbeing. When absorbed into your blood, it also attaches itself to your opioid receptors. Rather than acting like an opioid and blocking pain signals though, it competes for these receptors, stopping opioids from binding with them. This reduces the effects the opioids have on you.

Suboxone side effects & Suboxone drug interactions

The most common side effects Suboxone can cause include insomnia, headaches, constipation, nausea, excessive sweating, and drug withdrawal syndrome. In rarer cases, Suboxone can cause more severe side effects, including allergic reactions and liver damage.

These aren’t all the side effects Suboxone can cause. For a full list, see the leaflet that comes with your medication. 

When you take Suboxone with other medications it can change how Suboxone and the other medications work. Some side effects might become more likely. The following drugs are known or thought to interact with Suboxone:

  • Benzodiazepines, like diazepam and temazepam
  • Other opioid-containing medicines, like methadone
  • Anti-depressants
  • Sedative H1 receptor antagonists used to treat allergic reactions
  • Barbiturates
  • Tranquilizers
  • Clonidine, used to treat blood pressure
  • Anti-retrovirals used to treat HIV, like ritonavir
  • Antifungal medications, like ketoconazole and itraconazole
  • Medications used to treat epilepsy, like carbamazepine or phenytoin
  • Naltrexone and nalmefene, used to treat addictive disorders
  • Alcohol

Make sure you tell your prescribing physician about all drugs you’re taking. This includes vitamins and dietary supplements.

Don’t drink alcohol when you take Suboxone as it can make some side effects worse and can increase the risk of respiratory failure.

Don’t eat or drink until the tablet or film has completely dissolved.
