Is Suboxone Intake Safe In Pregnant Woman?

I m 5 months pregnant and am taking 2 mg of suboxone daily is that OK? I know it would be better to not take anything but I ve also heard that it s not safe for the baby if I stop taking the medicine. Also if I choose to continue to take suboxone what if any side effects will my baby have?

Hii


Subxone is not indicated in pregnancy.

Please withdraw it slowly from 2 mg to .5 mg and then stop it completely.

It produce severe withdrawal in baby and it may harm baby.

So it is not safe.
Please stop and stay healthy.

Thank you.
