How Does Suboxone Work and Why Do Opioid Addicts Need it?

By Andrew Stephen | March 4, 2021 |

“Suboxone” is the brand-name for Buprenorphine and Naloxone. There are now multiple generic versions of Suboxone available by prescription from a doctor who obtains an X-DEA license or “X-Waiver” as it is often referred. It is this “XDEA Waiver” that allows them to prescribe Suboxone. This is also reason most general practitioners do not prescribe…

I’m actually Clark since my divorce, and I NEVER usually leave reviews, but I recently moved to TN from FL. I spent so... much time on the phone trying to find a doctor/psychiatrist that would take me as a patient. I must have called over 15-20 different places before I found the Nashville Recovery Clinic. I walked in and I was in a state of sheer panic! However, the women at the front desk were amazing! They went above and beyond to make me feel safe. (Thank You both Maddie and Jackie!) I saw a therapist 1st and she was lovely. She listened and made me feel like I wasn’t a piece of garbage. I then saw Dr Chambers. I cannot put into words how much my visit with him meant! He took such great care of me, and he even let me know if I ever needed to talk or if I ever had questions, I could call or text anytime 24/7 and one of the therapists would gladly speak with me!!! I thank God I happened to come across Nashville Recovery Clinic, because I was in a bad place after so many other doctors/psychiatrists said they would not see me. Dr Chambers actually cares and listens, and I think that’s the most important thing to look for in any doctor! I’m actually looking forward to my next appointment! Everyone that works here are so caring and attentive to your specific needs, so look no further if you’re trying to find a great recovery doctor and a wonderful staff to back him!Thank you all for being there for me for my first appointment! I know I was a mess, but please know you each made me feel welcome and heard. Thank you so much Dr Chambers!! You really took such great care of me, and I never once felt ashamed or judged by you. You are an amazing person, and I’m so lucky and thankful I found your Clinic!Sincerely,Ruth Clarkread more

I’m impressed with how many of the staff have gone through what a lot of what we have. They understand what addiction... is and how hard it can be especially during these last months Of the lock down when we couldn’t even get to meetings, NA ,AA, HA, or CA. These are to some of us are life lines to staying sober. It great to see NRC helping people like myself get back on my feet after a rough year of struggling with sobriety. They made it easy to ask for some help again after a long relapse. I think that’s because they have been there. The hardest thing (I have noticed) about addicts is…..Asking for Help. I’m thankful I did and am now getting back on the horse again with the help of the great people at Nashville Recovery. Thanksread more

I recommend this place to anyone who is looking for a change and to throw out bad habits. I was hooked on Lortabs for... about 10 years, because I had fractured part of my spine and neck due to a sports injury and was prescribed Lortabs for the pain. Then the government started to monitor opioid prescriptions and became very strict on doctors and what they prescribe, so they cut me off cold turkey and I was clueless about the affects it would have on me till after they took them away and I found myself not being able to sleep, sweating nonstop, felt like the flu. I was having terrible thoughts in my head and just really down on myself in general. I felt like maybe I didn’t have much of a purpose in life anymore. I’m not ashamed of my past because I know my present and future can be different, it’s up to me. I was buying Lortabs of the street every chance I could, at first I was doing it because of my back and neck pain, but then I found myself taking them even when I didn’t need to, every couple of hours....I became dependent on tabs to get through my every day life. Yeah it felt great but my bank account suffered. I was ashamed of myself and distanced myself from family. Life just took a turn for the worst for me. My reason for this review is because I know if you are reading this then you’ve already took the first step by looking up places to seek help, so be proud of that, not embarrassed. Some people might say “Suboxone is just replacing one thing for another”...but that is not true. This medication doesn’t make you feel high or anything, it makes life manageable and it takes away your cravings for whatever it is you take. Please seek help if you are feeling dependent on any type of drug. Life can get better for you, but you have to be willing to make the change. This place can help you overcome addiction, but at the end of the day it’s YOU that is the deciding factor on whether you want to continue down the same path or choose to better yourself and seek help. There is counseling here as well, take advantage of it. A lot of people choose to not seek help because of the cost (you can buy your drugs for around the same cost as a monthly visit), which is why I say it’s YOU that decides your future. This place can only help so much, but you have to be able to help yourself too for it to work. Yeah you are going to have some slip ups in the beginning, some won’t, but some will. It’s okay. They are there to help you get through it, they know how hard it is to just up and quit something you’ve become addicted to, so they will work with you and help get you where you need to be. Take your medication as prescribed always, find what dosage is best for you to feel normal again and be able to function in your daily life. It won’t be easy at first, you have to work at it and it’s hard, but once you get past the first month or 2, it’s smooth sail from there. You are not a lost cause, you are not a failure, you are not a bad person, you just were dealt different cards than others...but that is what makes it worth it in the end, to know and admit you had a problem and you worked your butt off to fix it and be a better YOU. It’s very rewarding and a boost to your self esteem once you see the progress you are making. Again, this is the first step in a better life for you and the ones you love. Please take the step, seek treatment, and become a better you. It starts here at Nashville Recovery Suboxone Clinic. It will change your life. You matter.read more
