Suboxone Treatment: I Have a Really Serious Concern! I Am on Suboxone?
Question by Ashley: I have a really serious concern! I am on suboxone?
which has helped me stay sober off of heroin for the past year and a half. I have begun to taper off of the suboxone, but it has given me serious constipation. I know that I am not ready to be completely off of suboxone but, I have tapered off somewhat. The problem is I got really bad constipation from the medication. My dr. told me I need to be on a laxative with a stool softener while I am taking the suboxone to prevent the constipation, but I feel as if the laxative is making me lose to much weight and I don’t have an eating disorder. What should I do? This is something that is really upsetting me. What should I do? I have tried to stop taking the laxative and I immediately begin to be constipated again. I don’t know what to do.

Have you tried a suppository? I’m not sure if those are just for children or not.
Try fiber, or prune juice.
I drink a cup of coffee every morning and it works for me.
Have you tried just a stool softener?
