Hi alwaysok-
I think the best place to post this question would be in the addiction/recovery board. They are helpful. I know you can't post the same question on different boards so maybe you can have a moderator make the switch for you. From my understanding people have been switched to suboxone because it is a newer drug with less side effects but I believe it blocks opiates just as your methadone does. It's probably scary for you to switch since it has worked for so long. Is there a reason they want you to switch? Good luck.
