I think if I was on the verge of relapse I would definitely go with the suboxone. One it has the ceiling level of around 4 mg so no matter how much you take you wont overdose unless you mix it with benzos then you take the chance of respatory(sp) arrest.
Too many people have relapsed on opiates and died where this will not happen with suboxone. That is the beauty of this drug. The thing is you have to get you sub doctor to talk to your parents and explain to them the ceiling level. Of course someone that is opiate naive is going to get a buzz or high from suboxone due to how strong the medication is.
I am sure if mom knew that sub alone would not cause overdose but opiates could kill her son ………she would give him the suboxone. Good Luck. See if she will get on this site and talk to some of us.
