Yes There Are Generic Suboxone (Page 4) (Top voted first)

there is a generic Suboxone out now. they begin shipping them to pharmacies the last week of February. also, if you have any type of insurance you will automatically get the generic suboxin. The doctor has no say in whether you get the name brand or generic really. even if he writes a prescription for suboxone, the pharmacist will automatically give you the generics if you have insurance. if you don't have any insurance, you can ask the pharmacist to give you generics because they are cheaper. Plus, R and B has stopped making the name brand suboxin pills. they are only making be films now. So whenever your pharmacy runs out of the original suboxin, there will not be any more.

@sean21,

Do you happen to know by any chance who the manufacturer is or what the new generic Suboxone is supposed to look like?

I came across a very brief article (shown below), stating the following:

"Actavis, Inc. has announced that it has received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) on its Abbreviated New Drug Application (ANDA) for Buprenorphine HCl and Naloxone HCl Dihydrate SL Tablets, 2 mg/0.5 mg and 8 mg/2 mg, the generic equivalent to Reckitt Benckiser Healthcare's Suboxone."

Ref: addictionpro.com/news-item/actavis-generic-suboxone-receives-fda-approval

However I have not seen much more information than this and am just curious as to how reputable that source is. Thanks for sharing any feedback!

I have seen the 2 mg strips and they are labeled N2. They are made by different companies under the R B name and some of them are very very faint and the imprint is also. They have a different taste to them and work awfully. If you are not happy with the efficacy of the medicine talk to your Dr. I was very pleased with the pills and then was switched to the films and then they cut me down to 12 mgs daily. That's half of my dose. All in order to keep monthly. I have been sent to different pharmacies to get it filled and each store has always had a different looking film. I also have noticed that on the wrapper is a number 1 through 8. The higher the number the more bupenorphine. You can see it if you hold it up to a light. All the dark spots are the bupe. You can take my advice and if you sort out the films by number and add the numbers up and take the average. Then I sort them out and take the highest average doses each day so I can get a steady stream of medicine. An example is like I get about 18 films labeled 2 on the bottom and then a few 8 and 1 and such. I will take a 2 each day and then if I have a low number one I take the whole thing, if I have an 8 I will only take the one. I essentially try and get each day to have the number on the wrapper to be as close to 8 as possible. The medicine is not all going to be 8 mgs in every strip and the healthcare system does not tell you. If you are taking 8 mgs daily and get 28 for the month, of the 28 you are not going to get all 8mgs. You will get an assortment of strengths. That's why I am going to see about zubsolve tomorrow

I Am taking the strips not the pill form. that could be why I have not seen them or heard about them. I would rather have the film instead of the pill form. they dissolve faster than the pill form..
