In reply to Suboxone???? Is it only for Opiates or an Ad Too?, posted by Phillipa on May 25, 2008, at 13:07:47
I guess we are talking today.
I looked this up extensively a few months ago as my urologist was insisting I go to a "special" doctor for it and get off the oxycontin I am on. He insisted it was for better pain management and had nothing to do with what I read it was for, addiction. Anyway I refused because every time he changes my pain meds I get worse side effects. They all work but they all have different side effects for me. At least I have learned to deal with my current ones and they are tolerable. I know I checked out a lot more but with my memory problems I cannot remember. I will look it up more later. I started watching "Good Will Hunting" and I need the distraction now. Was a commercial. If I was not occupied I would look it up for you. I cannot imagine it would be any better than other opiates that some find useful for depression. It is the reason my initial pdoc prescribed oxycontin in particular for my pain. I'm not sure if he thought it would help or not with the depression but he definitely knew it would not make it worse for me. I did peak on psychobabble and there seems to be a lot of information (posts) to read. You might want to start there.
Good luck. It's been nice talking to you. I hope it has been at least not a nuisance to you?
Next commercial perhaps,
