What Not To Say During Suboxone Appt (Page 12)

My boyfriend has battled with heroin addiction for at least 2 years now. He was prescribed to before, but couldn't afford the maintenance program and ended up banging heroin again. He went back to his doctor to get a script for suboxone again last week, and the doctor wouldn't prescribe it to him. I found another dr who can prescribe suboxone nearby, and want to make sure he gets a script because he will die if he doesn't quit using. Does anyone know any reasons why a dr wouldn't prescribe suboxone?
Thanks.

Unfortunately, you are so right... Suboxone is a game changer. It completely eliminated my cravings and I took 120-200mg/day of oxy, and my life was not my own. Methadone didn't help. I just wanted more. Suboxone makes me feel NORMAL and I can live my life without constant fiending. I am happy and motivated and have good energy to be a functional person. Anyone with opiate addiction should try suboxone in my opinion. In the next few years the scales will tip and it will be the norm in lieu of methadone. It's a partial agonist plus antagonist so it makes taking real opiates not feel good, which creates a new biofeedback loop in your brain to have an aversion to real opiates. Can I get a hallelujah?

Not true for me...I went in to treatment on day 5 of withdrawals. Perhaps checking into out patient treatment first even if for a week would grease the wheels by documenting the addiction with professionals. ???

I have someone presently who has been cut off his suboxone because he is outside of the clinic jurisdiction. There are no other sub doctors in the area. (rural Montana) We are trying to find him a medical detox. This would need to be anywhere in the Pacific Northwest. Does anybody know any medical detox for him?
