So let me get this straight, Suboxone isn't substituting one drug for another when it literally is the very definition. Suboxone, even when misusing it, diverting it, shooting it up, putting it in their eyeballs or tush is still active recovery, and Kratom IS substituting one drug for another, and even when thousands tell you they take a small amount a few times a day, and it saved their lives, it's active addiction?
Do you people hear yourselves? Sure thing, keep blaming the Sacklers while Indivior is doing much worse and you celebrate it.
You can give Suboxone for free with the daily newspaper and many people will still not want it. Not for pain, not for "addiction." Why is that? Why don't you ask the people who don't want it? Oh, right, you don't care about what they have to say about it.
