A short taper of buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) is basically a detox program, which is not supported by evidence-based care. However, research does show that continuous, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) with buprenorphine or methadone prevents overdose and death.
Long-term buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) treatment provides ongoing, incremental care over months-to-years, in which patients take daily buprenorphine/naloxone (Suboxone) and regularly meet with their providers… and this is exactly what Bicycle Health specializes in.
