hi
thanks for using healthcare magic

If u want to leave suboxene, in that case first u have to motivate urself which is key in case of maintaining abstinence. Then u can gradually decrease the dose of suboxene by reducing it 0.4mg per day. Means if u r taking 20mg of suboxene, i will be off treatment in 50 days. rest depend upon ur craving and motivation. At such a lose reducing dose, u would not get any withdrawal.

Thanks
