Worse are the withdrawal symptom caused by abrupt discontinuation of the use of some of the pharmaceutical opiates such as oxycontin, and particularly methadone. These substances can produce weeks and sometimes even months of sweats , muscle and joint aches, spasms, cramping, diarrhea, vomiting and dehydration, leading to possible convulsions. With Suboxone use virtually all the bedridden anguish associated with severe opiate withdrawal symptoms can be avoided. Suboxine eliminates the withdrawal symptoms so well that drug rehab clients can begin the non pharmacological treatments such as recovery groups and even physical activities almost immediately after admission to the Connor Ranch Treatment Center. Also. while Suboxine is in use, no other opiate will produce an euphoric effect, thus minimizing the risk of impulsive return to opiate use.
