Cost of Suboxone

November 12, 2011 by admin 3 Comments

A Reader Writes: Message: The State of XXXXXX prescription price list noted Target Pharmacy as the cheapest for Suboxone at $6.99/Suboxone pill, 8mg-2mg, qty. 30. So I started getting my prescriptions filled at Target. Well, needless to say they raised their prices twice since then and I am now paying $8.158333/Suboxone pill, 8mg-2mg, qty. 30, Nov. … [Read more…]

The Suboxone Business Fix

October 24, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

I have shared my thoughts about ‘Suboxone Film,’ a product that serves only one purpose:  to block generic competition from entering the Suboxone market.  Below I’ve copied a Bloomberg article that discusses the current nature of the buprenorphine/naloxone business, and the efforts by RB to prevent market penetration by generics– something that would lead to … [Read more…]

Score One For Reckitt-Benckiser

December 1, 2010 by admin 9 Comments

I received notice today from the area’s Reckitt-Benckiser rep that the company has secured a mini-coup of sorts, requiring state of WI Medicaid subscribers on buprenorphine to use the Suboxone Film formulation.  Here is the notice I received: Wisconsin State Medicaid has as of December 1st  today added Suboxone Sublingual Film as the preferred delivery … [Read more…]

Buprenorphine Film: Step Forward or Marketing Gimmick?

September 28, 2010 by admin 10 Comments

It i salways humorous when companies do what Reckitt-Benckiser recently did– make a small change in their product, then trash the old product in favor of the new, more expensive product.  “The OLD formulation is GARBAGE!  It poses huge risks! It is reckless and irresponsible to prescribe that tablet (the one that we’ve been marketing for years, … [Read more…]

Breaking Bad over RB

April 17, 2010 by admin Leave a Comment

Remember back when I used to write those ANGRY posts, where I would take people to task for their silly comments about buprenorphine?  I remember them.  THOSE were the days!  I was always ready to go nuclear on anyone who tried to debate whether buprenorphine treatment was ‘good’ or ‘bad.’    C’mon punk– MAKE MY DAY.  … [Read more…]

Does Reckitt-Benckiser have blood on their hands?

March 6, 2010 by admin 5 Comments

Regular readers of this blog know that I am a big fan of buprenorphine treatment of opiate dependence. I used to spend hours arguing with people over whether or not buprenorphine represents “a drug for a drug”, before eventually deciding that those who must be talked into buprenorphine treatment are poor candidates for buprenorphine treatment. … [Read more…]

Reckitt-Benckiser's 'Here to Help' Program– What do you think?

December 16, 2009 by admin 9 Comments

Reckitt-Benckiser, the first (but surely not last) manufacturer of orally dissolvable buprenorphine sold under the brand names Suboxone and Subutex, has been aggressively pushing doctors to refer addicts taking buprenorphine into a program called ‘Here to Help’ that they promote as something that will keep patients compliant with buprenorphine maintenance.  Regular readers of STZ know that I … [Read more…]

More on the generic form of buprenorphine

October 31, 2009 by admin 1 Comment

Hey Doc, I went to Walgreens early this morning and they had the drug on hand. So, if there is anyone who still has doubts as to the drug being available at local pharmacies- this shows the 2nd largest drugstore chain has it available in its pharmacies. Note: the writer is referring to a Walgreens … [Read more…]
