Hello.
I have never heard of Subutex until reading about it on this board. Is it available in the United States? If I understand correctly, from reading this board, the options with regard to getting off of heroin are 1) cold turkey, 2) methadone, 3) Subutex, and I believe there is a 4th option, nal-something or other.
Any feedback appreciated. My son relapsed again. In the past I have been against Methadone. But now I am thinking, "Whatever works."
Thanks for any and all information/viewpoints.

Hi Chrissy,
I would not let your son take methadone it gives you the same affect as H and it is a battle to get off that as well subutex is the much better option i have been an addict for 5yrs i am clean now and i have been taking subs and i feel fine no withdrawels and i have no craving for it at all, i am just looking to the future now drug free i hardly ever think about herion. Subs our are also blokers as well so if your son was on them and he did use while being on the subs will be a waste cos it will not affect him so it is alot better. i am not to sure if you can get them in the U.S go to your doctor and ask find out what options you and your son have, i wish you all the luck in the world i will be thinking of you take care and keep me posted good luck xx
