I Take Suboxone for Opiate Addiction. Is Suboxone Itself Addictive?

Question by terrielea: I take Suboxone for opiate addiction. Is suboxone itself addictive?

Best answer:

Answer by Ladycat
With successful buprenorphine treatment as part of a complete treatment plan including counseling, the patient can put the addictive behavior into remission. The patient may still be “physically dependent” on opioids, (as they were prior to treatment) but this can be managed medically and reduced over time by a slow and gradual taper off of the medication. Physical dependence (often mistaken for “addiction”) is not a dangerous medical condition that requires treatment, addiction is. Addiction is damaging and life-threatening, while physical dependence is an inconvenience, and is normal physiology for anyone taking large doses of opioids for an extended period of time.

Question by : If illegal drugs were taxed….?
like alcohol and tobacco, how much would it net the Federal government and would that be enough to fund all the drug treatment/prevention programs? Would drug use go up or down?

Best answer:

Answer by quizzard123
it would go way up, since many people who would otherwise use do not due to fear of arrest.

Nobody can say what taxation of illegal drugs would produce, since nobody knows the price or the tax rate.
