Answer by Severe Clear
You’re going to have a hard time finding Bupenephrine through any online sources. Believe it or not, it’s highly regulated and most pharmacies both online and in-store are kept on a short leash.
Doctor’s who prescribe Bupenephrine (Suboxone) know why you are in need of it and are specially trained and certified to help you through narcotic detox, regardless if your addiction is from prescription meds or illegal street drugs. Suboxone has been used to treat addiction to everything from hydrocodone to heroin. The doctor you will see won’t judge you. He/she already knows why you are there…don’t worry! =)
