Myths

Dangerous and complex chronic disease management

Reality: Simpler than titrating insulin for a DKA or anticoagulation

Simply a “replacement” addiction

Reality: Addiction includes compulsion, loss of control and use despite consequences. Taking a prescribed medication to manage chronic illness does not meet this

Detox for OUD is effective

Reality: No data showing this. May increase likelihood of OD by eliminating tolerance.

Suboxone is a the same as methadone

Reality: Methadone is a full agonist opioid, does not have a ceiling effect, therefore higher risk of overdose. Methadone has more drug interactions and prolongs the QT interval.

Suboxone is unsafe

Reality: It is extremely difficult to overdose on Suboxone due to “ceiling” effect. Naloxone component reduces risk of misuse.
