Generally we are unable to prescribe Subutex (=buprenorphine alone without naloxone) unless it is for a valid medical reason and you have had a documented trial of Suboxone in the past which failed.
If you have not had a previous prescription that we can find in the prescription monitoring system, or we are unable to contact your previous prescriber, we can only prescribe the default medication, which is Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone).
If you have additional questions about this or would like to provide us with proof of a prior Subutex or Suboxone prescription, please contact us here.
