Suboxone is a brand name prescription medication used to treat pain for those who have an opioid dependence. It contains ingredients like buprenorphine and naloxone. The first ingredient buprenorphine helps to block the opiate receptors which help to reduce a person’s urges. While the second ingredient, naloxone, helps to reverse the effects of opioids in the body. With the help of both of these ingredients together, this drug works to prevent withdrawal symptoms that can be associated with an opioid dependence.
