Need to locate a doctor...

I have a boyfriend with an addiction to pain medications and have heard that Saboxen is the way to go to get help...the only thing is...I don't even know where to start to get him prescribed the medication. Is it a family doctor thing or do only certain doctors do it?

You can go to Turntohelp.com for the website on Suboxone or call 866-455-8876 and they can help you locate a doctor in your area who is certified to prescribe it & also give you more info on it. Good Luck!

Not all doctors can prescribe Suboxone.  I forget the website, but you can probably Google it and go to the suboxone website, and I believe they have a doctor locator on there.  Good luck to you.

It depends. Does he have a family Dr. And would he be ok with talking to the Dr. about it? If so, then YES, by all means take him right away to his fam dr. The dr. will give him meds to help him with the w.d process. ANd if he is really bad, he can direct him to alternate routes....Good luck\
