OK. Just to clear things up, the dosage of bupe and nal aren't so simple. The strips are 8mg/2mg the Zubsolv is 5.7mg/1.4mg there is also a strip that is 12mg/3mg. all three of these doses are the same. they are the same potency, and effect your body the same way as they are all absorbed sublingually. If you raise the dosage of both active chemicals the potency will stay the same. The same applies if you lower both chemicals.Therefore, if you think the 5.7mg dose didn't affect you the same as the 8mg dose, you are incorrect. You would be surprised how many people have this problem. But it is a mental problem. That's not to say that the mental need does not give you a real physical change. But all three of the dosages I spoke about are all the same and have the same potency. I have a Phd and a masters in biology and chemical engineering and currently work as an addiction care physician. Oh and i am a recovering H/Morphine/Di lauded addict. If anyone has any questions just ask.

Of course a 2 mg Xanax made you feel good. Try it without then tell us about your day.

I've been taking the Zubsolv now for a month. One 5.7 in the morning and one at night. I am so sorry to say it is NOT the same! With the subs I had no cravings at all, I have also winged myself off subs and returned to them only because of knee surgery. Thanks to our wonderful insurance I have no choice. The switch over was easy, no withdrawals but seems like the zub has way more side effects. Looks like it's working for some and that's great but for me my cravings are back and I'm very moody. I'm controlling my cravings but I want off of this stuff quick! Don't like it at all.

Sub has a higher bioavailability that is why they are 5.7-1.4 mg you get the exact same affects as a 8-2 mg strip all of those who say you don't feel anything is completely a mental thing which I'm not saying isn't important read the info that comes with the prescription if you want more information the two drugs are almost identical suboxone and zubsolv are just brand names it's the bupe and naloxone that actually are the ingredients that you feel it's like Pepsi and coke

I just tried zubsolv an it sucks not worth even trying it. If you want to go through withdrawals take zubsolv if you don't want withdrawals take suboxone. Zubsolv pays people to write good reviews to sell their products. Read the reviews an you can see

I've been on Bupe (Suboxone for 6 months/Zubsolv 2 months-currently on) and I have to say when my Dr. told me about Zubsolv I was very skeptical, in fact I told her no and stayed on Suboxone for another month. Well I realized why not try something different yet still the same since I could NOT STAND the taste of the suboxone strips and I hated how long it took the strips to dissolve. Sometimes it would be under my tongue for 45 mins!!! Well 2 months ago I said I'll try the Zubsolv... I have to say it was the best choice I've ever made lol because it's like putting a menthol candy under your tongue.. it dissolves in literally 3-6 minutes, it doesn't even come close to tasting like medicine.. I've heard people say that the menthol is too strong and burns under the tongue.... I don't want to say they are lying but let's just say everyone is different becuse it's not strong tasting at all, like I said almost like a candy mint. If I'm going through withdrawals and I take this, within like 10 minutes I'm feeling 95% better. So it usually kicks in after 10-20 minutes of taking it. I take 1 of the 5.7mg pills (which is equal to a 8mg strip) and 2 of the 1.4mg pills (which is equal to 2mg strip each, or in my case '2' 2mg strips). I take all 3 in the morning (the 5.7mg first then after that has dissolved I take both 1.4mg pills). Just like strips Zubsolv is placed under the tongue. So basically if you don't like the way Suboxone strips taste and you don't like waiting long for the strip to dissolve and the medicine to kick in then Zubsolv is for you. It's like a "new & improved" Suboxone.....

Now I hear people say you feel more of a buzz with the strips, I used to feel a slight buzz/nausea with the strips. With Zubsolv I don't really feel a buzz or nausea but it still works and takes the sick "opioid withdrawl" feeling away just like Suboxone. The whole point in me getting better was to stop feeling high so why would I want a buzz when I take my medicine. It defeats the purpose of getting better if you take it just to feel high... So another point if you want to get better and your serious about it then Zubsolv is for you. Well that about does it lol so it's up to you to make the decision like I said everyone is different.

Why do you think it is necessary for the insurance companies to have physicians switch their patients to the Zubsolv when they're stabilized on Suboxone, regarding the patients that their insurance still cover Suboxone or Subutex?
Also, I thought the ceiling effect didn't become active until 24-32mgs, if this is so then I don't understand your statement that 5.7, 8, & 12 mgs are all the same? If they were the same why would there be different mgs? I understand how mental tolerance can effect the physical effects, but how does the science state that is absolutely mental and not to do with a persons chemical makeup? What science supports these claims?
Thanks

The question I previously asked was intended for Dr. Elliot, but if anyone has something to say that's great.

I've been trying to detox on my own, and its so horrible so after 9 days I started the migraines again after not having one in 4 months. Pain doctor I have put me on fentora then on a time release that scared the #!!t out of me cause of side effects. So I told him I wanted off this stuff I would rather be in pain. I tried zubsolv today because I couldn't handle the pain and didn't even touch it...it sucks and tastes awful!!!!

I have been on suboxone for 11 months 16 mg @ day .My insurance wont pay for suboxone and i cant afford the 400.00 @ month bill that comes with it . My doctor switched me to Zubsolv 5.7 mg twice a day. It has been a week on it and i do like the taste and how quickly it dissolves ....but I feel iam having withdrawl symptoms from the suboxone . After about 4 days on the Zubsolv I was having body aches , nausea , watery eyes and irritability , just not feeling 100 %. I have no choice but to stay on the Zubsolv and hope this goes away . Has anyone who has taken the Zubsolv after suboxone noticed this ?

Are some of you guys crazy?? Do you even read what people say on here? What is the point of posting to help people when they don't even read it. One person just said they got switched to Zubsolv and hated it and the taste....That is a lie as I already explained a few posts earlier. Now as for the person who just said they couldn't afford suboxone anymore so they got switched to Zubsolv and now have bad withdrawals from leaving the suboxone.. that is another line of cap. Zubsolv is LITERALLY the same identical medicine as suboxone. THEY ARE BOTH BUPE and NALOXONE! It's very simple... If I don't take my meds when I wake up then I feel horrible the entire day, so when I wake up every morning I take my Zubsolv and it does the trick, I don't feel bad anymore and I don't have any cravings... The SAME way I felt when I used to be on the strips.... So as I've said before (a few posts down) they are the same thing the strips and zubsolv, and has the same ingredients so if you feel otherwise then it's all in your head and that's a fact.

Maybe get your mouth checked??? NO OFFENSE! I've never had sub tabs, strips, zub tabs or anything take that long to disolve. Other than that I agree! The point is NOT to feel the buzz & to NOT want the buzz! I just started Zub today. Would love to hear if it's still working for you. LOVE the taste! Good luck to all.

Dr Elliot, I am the owner of a business and have a dependence on Vicodin for the last 4-5 years. I am looking for advice from A-Z on getting off meds. Typical story, I am an ex-athlete whom had a bad back for over a three year period when I was prescribed Vicodin during that time, then got surgery which fixed 80% of my problems, but by that time they had increased dosage and of course, I am still taking it just to be 'normal'. Since I am been on it sooo long, my tolerance is high and I am scared. Withdrawals and insomnia is horrible. I have 9 other people working for me, I cannot 'leave' my business, so I would like to work with a professional doctor as an outpatient. What should I expect for treatment? (from physical, timing, mental, etc) Also, my father owned alcohol/drug treatment centers my whole life, so I am very familiar with the 12 step approach. Thanks for any advice!

Yes i currently am on zubsolv. i have been on suboxone film for 5 years and i only took 1 8mg/2mg a day. my scrip costs 90 to 150 for suboxone. i switched to zubsolv because it was something new and i figured i would give it a try. i am now on the 5.7mg zubsolv i am saposed to take 1 a day. My best way to put it is i could take a quarter of a suboxone film and be good. these i take the whole pill which is said to be equal to a whole film. ummmm no that is not true. One thing that was a nice change was taste. I replyed only becuase of one other person who said he would wake up and take some a suboxone film and then at lunch time would take one after lunch i would do the same. the suboxone film is alot more convenient.

I was going to switch to the zubsolv bc of the savings. Is it true you can use the coupon six times per script if you only get a few days worth at a time? I am spending 900.00 a month between doc and the films. Help!!!!

I just started this drug today. I have never tried suboxone, or any brand of bup....i canTbeleieve how much better i feel after one %.7 tablet. My doctor said to take two a day but the insert says take them once a day. Do you recomend taking the 5.7 twice a day or 11.4 all at once. ? I enjoyed the taste, and so far have no symptoms at all. My wd have subsided and i could not be happier. I do wonder, how long do i need to hold the saliva in my mouth after it is dissolved???
