Why Should You Choose Suboxone Detox Instead of Methadone?

Suboxone is a newer opiate addiction maintenance drug that many are finding far superior to methadone in helping to relieve withdrawal symptoms during treatment for opiate addiction. Why should you choose our Suboxone detox Delray Beach program instead of another program that uses methadone? Let’s take a look at some of the advantages of Suboxone detox.

Suboxone is More Effective Than Methadone

Suboxone is a partial opiate agonist, while methadone is a full opiate agonist. This means that people going through methadone detox can abuse their methadone by taking more than the recommended dose. They’ll get high. Getting high off of your methadone maintenance drugs just prolongs the agony of addiction.

Suboxone, on other hand, won’t get you high if you increase your dose beyond the recommended level. This means that you’re more likely to get and stay clean when you enter our Suboxone detox Delray Beach program.

It’s Easier to Taper Off of Suboxone

You’ll find that it’s easier to taper off of Suboxone at the end of your Suboxone detox Delray Beach program. Because Suboxone isn’t a full opiate agonist like methadone, using it during our Suboxone detox Delray Beach program doesn’t maintain your physical dependence on opiates. As you continue through our Suboxone detox Delray Beach program, your physical dependence on opiates will gradually lessen, so that when you finally reach the end of your Suboxone detox Delray Beach program and stop taking Suboxone, your withdrawal symptoms will be far less severe than they would with methadone.

Suboxone Detox is More Convenience than Methadone Maintenance

Because you can’t abuse Suboxone the way you can methadone, it’s not necessary to come to a clinic every day to get your dose of maintenance drugs. If you enter our Suboxone detox Delray Beach program, you’ll be given a prescription to fill. That means you can keep a supply of Suboxone in your medicine cabinet and take it in the privacy of your own home.
