Best answer:

Answer by katiecat
I have never heard of the suboxone, but I used to take methadone because some stupid dr. told me it was cheaper and less harmful then the others on my liver.
The shit nearly killed me when I chose to stop taking it. The dr. later told me (after 3 lousy weeks of detox) that it is worse then getting of crack cocaine. Please, do some research…Methadone is great for pain until you come off of it. It was a nightmare.
