> > Stupid moves like this from the FDA really bother me - don't they have anything better to focus on than making useful medications less available for those who need them!? Bupreorphine should be schedule IV if anything - I can't believe they want to move it to Schedule II!??!? It's abuse potential hardly achives that of Klonopin or Ambien. But when someone says that magic word out loud "OPIATE!" It's like the medical paparazzi jump out of your medicine cabinet! ARGH!!!! Why don't they make SSRIs controlled drugs? If anything causes dependence and severe withdrawl - it's these cookie cutter SSRIs that don't do crap.

And probably earlier in vivo. They may not work for you, but that doesnt mean to associate them as therefore a schedulable drug. Its a non-sequitor, I don't mean any harsheness.

I was being facetious. I know plenty about SSRIs and opiates thanks.
