About
Subutex is a prescription medication used to treat opioid addiction and dependence. It is a brand name for buprenorphine, a partial opioid agonist that works by binding to the same receptors in the brain as other opioids, but with less intensity.
This reduces the cravings and withdrawal symptoms experienced by those addicted to opioids. Subutex has been proven to be an effective treatment for opioid addiction, and many people have found relief and success in their recovery journey with its use.
