SUBOXONE (buprenorphine and naloxone) is a prescription medication used in the treatment of opioid use disorder. SUBOXONE comes as a film or tablet and is taken underneath the tongue. The goal of SUBOXONE treatment is to replace any current opioid(s) being misused with a safer and less addictive alternative. Over time, the amount of medication is gradually reduced until withdrawal symptoms are barely present upon discontinuation.

SUBLOCADE is a monthly injection of extended-release buprenorphine (key ingredient in Suboxone) used in the treatment of opioid use disorder. SUBLOCADE works by forming a solid mass that releases a steady supply of buprenorphine into the body. Service recipients must begin SUBLOCADE treatment by starting with an oral buprenorphine-containing product for a minimum of 7 days.

VIVITROL is a monthly injection of extended-release naltrexone used in the treatment of alcohol use disorder and opioid use disorder. VIVITROL works by blocking key receptors in the brain that are responsible for the euphoric effects of opiates and alcohol. Like Sublocade, VIVITROL forms a solid mass that releases a steady supply of naltrexone into the body. Recipients must not use Suboxone or any other opiate for 7-10 days before starting VIVITROL. VIVITROL is most effectively used as part of a comprehensive relapse prevention program.
