For Opioid Use Disorder "I have been switched to Zubsolv from Suboxone 8 mg. So far, I am not feeling as fatigued as I used to on the Suboxone. The effects of the Zubsolv do hit you faster. However, I am worried about how long the medicine will last. I am afraid it won't last as long as my Suboxone strip did."

For Opioid Use Disorder "I hate this stuff. Once over withdrawals, may as well be off it. Still crave narcotics every day, and if I was able to get Vicodin, wouldn't be on this stuff. Now I'm fat, constipated, zero energy, and miserable. About to cry every day. Can't afford therapy, and NA doesn't want anyone on this stuff since it's not considered clean."

"I took Suboxone for about 5 years. Then my insurance changed, and I was switched to Zubsolv. I ended up on it in a strange way for pain and PTSD symptoms. During the time I changed brands, I was starting to feel weak, usually emotional, low energy, which is not the type of guy I normally was. I assumed it was the Zubsolv. I continued to struggle on it for years. Then I got a new GP when I moved, and she looked at my meds and my complaints and ordered a testosterone test. It came back indicating I had the levels of an 80-year-old man, and I was 30. Getting off Zubsolv was pretty rough. Going through opioid withdrawal is hard enough, but feeling so weak and emotional on top of it. It took me quitting my job and focusing completely on rebuilding myself mentally and physically for a year. Still, my quality of life during that time was so much better."

For Opioid Use Disorder "I love opiates. Uppers were my first love, but it was of the puppy sort. Opiates were my 'DOG LOVE,' for lack of a better phrase in the English vernacular. Pretty soon, I was spending ~$2K+ a month on pills, and I definitely don't make enough for that to be sustainable. I decided to go cold turkey and the nearest ER during withdrawals, but they turned me away (illegal... I think?). My PCP then introduced me to an online service called Ophielia. We tried Suboxone films at first, which gave me horrible constipation and fatigue. Zubsolv proved to be a far superior drug-intermittent constipation, less brain fog, less extreme fatigue, less cravings (no cravings would be a lie), ad infinitum."

For Opioid Use Disorder "I have been taking one 5.7 Zubsolv for opiate addiction. I took Suboxone years ago without side effects (some constipation). The Zubsolv makes me feel nauseous, which I never experienced with Suboxone. I started taking Zubsolv in February this year. Since then (it is now X-mas Eve), I have lost 55 lbs, and I am not dieting. Can't eat, I have no appetite and constant nausea, to the point of dry heaves. I was having both constipation and diarrhea but without much output. I feel like I have the flu or a stomach virus for the past 10 months. Now I don't know if it is the Zubsolv or something else. I am having a stomach endoscopy next month. No narcs... putting me to sleep. Am I wasting my time and money, or has anyone else experienced huge weight loss, constant nausea, some vomiting, and diarrhea, and feeling overall malaise?"
