Subutex
 
This is the most ridiculous thing the government can take away from people in the recovery stage..all you are going to do is force some really sincere people that want to get clean hit the streets. Maybe have more overdoses. There is a lot of people that just can not take suboxen due to the huge allergy to naloxen. I have a very close person to me and if something happens to her, the board of medicine will be hearing from me...i vote to keep subutex for the indviduals that cant take suboxen.
