Suboxone® Treatment in Illinois and Ohio
Suboxone® is an FDA-approved treatment for opioid use disorder that can triple the likelihood of recovery when paired with counseling or therapy.
What is Suboxone® Treatment for Opioid Addiction?
Suboxone® is a brand-name prescription medicine consisting of naloxone and buprenorphine, both active ingredients. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved its use in helping adults overcome opioid addictions in 2002.
Harvard University conducted a study in 2015 that concluded that Suboxone® tripled the likelihood of recovery and opioid abstinence for adults when paired with counseling or therapy versus seeking counseling alone.

The Benefits of Suboxone®
Suboxone® (buprenorphine) treatment stops opiate cravings and eliminates withdrawal symptoms without feelings of euphoria to help individuals recover. Some buprenorphine medications also have Naloxone, which is a full inhibitor of the brain’s neuroreceptors. Some of the benefits of Suboxone® include:
Reduced Opioid Use & Misuse Potential
By blocking the neuroreceptors, Suboxone® minimizes the impact of opioids on the brain, reducing cravings for the substance while assisting in long-term recovery.
Eliminated Withdrawal Symptoms
Suboxone® helps patients successfully recover from opioid use disorder by mitigating withdrawal symptoms and reducing cravings. While using Suboxone®, patients can mitigate compulsive behaviors and gain control over their addiction.
Extended Treatment Time
By using Suboxone® alongside traditional counseling, patients with opioid use disorder can effectively stay in treatment longer without relapse, allowing for a more complete recovery.
Various Doses Available
Suboxone® is available in four different doses to support your unique needs:
2 mg buprenorphine/0.5 mg naloxone
