Definition

Suboxone treatment is a medical intervention that utilizes a combination of buprenorphine and naloxone to help individuals with opioid dependence or addiction. Buprenorphine helps to alleviate withdrawal symptoms and cravings, while naloxone discourages misuse of the medication. Suboxone treatment is typically part of a comprehensive recovery plan, which may include counseling, behavioral therapy, and support groups.
