So far, so good.
My friend has made the transfer from heroin to buprenorphine with little negative effects. He feels that his cravings have all but disappeared and has not experienced any significant withdrawal syndrome. Still, he wants to be free of all opioids, and the rehab center he is going to has a schedule by which they attempt to withdraw the buprenorphine.
I find it remarkable that the transfer to buprenorphine from methadone should be so much harder than it is from heroin.
Great information.
Thanks guys.
