Hello
Welcome to HCM

Suboxone consists of Buprenorphin and Naloxone. It is a drug used in Opioid De addiction programs. Buprenorphin is a partial agonist opioid and it can be detected in usual drug tests. It usually takes about 1-2 weeks to clear of blood completely. In hair tests it can be detected up to about one month.

Thanks
