How do I find a doctor that can prescribe Suboxone?
Not all doctors can prescribe Suboxone because it requires special certification. If a doctor wants to be able to prescribe Suboxone, he/she must (1) send a letter of intent to the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration, (2) be qualified, and (3) take a special course to learn about Suboxone. Many patients believe their doctors are largely uneducated on the subject. Although every doctor must meet certain criteria, many doctors do not seem to understand addiction or how Suboxone can be used effectively. The qualifications, as taken from SUBOXONE.
