Hello,
Suboxone is a combination of Buprenorphine and Naloxone but like heroin and other opioids, Suboxone has its own side effects and withdrawal symptoms.
If a person takes it for a longer period and then no longer gets it, he or she will suffer withdrawal symptoms like other opioids.
The severity of symptoms depends on the length and the amount of suboxone you take.
But everything about suboxone is not bad. The good thing is that the combination is designed in such a way that users can not abuse it.
You just have to remember that whenever you plan to get away with this drug, please do not do it suddenly.
You can taper the doses over 15-20 days. You can also consult your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
