That is a dangerous combo though. You must be very careful when combining the two.

My insurance doesn't cover the Subox0ne Dr visit ($220!!!), but it does cover the medication - 2x 8mg film (16mg) for $35. I also see a separate psychiatrist that insurance DOES pay for, for a low co-pay ($20) at each visit along with xan@x 1mg x3 daily and kl0n0pin 1mg x4 daily.
I will say it wasn't easy to find this subox0ne Dr. I have seen a few in the past, pre-2016, and it was never an issue being on benz0s and subox0ne, the Dr. just had you sign a paper stating knowing the risks. Starting with 2017 (if i recall correctly) it began being an issue with the 2 medications (it was always an issue, but I never got turned away because of my benz0 scripts). My current Sub Dr. now is only able to prescribe me because he is also a psychiatrist. He works with PTSD sufferers as well. A very kind guy. He gave me the option of writing all my prescriptions, or staying with my current psychiatrist that I have been seeing for 5.5 years. I am comfortable with her, and insurance covers all but $20, so I decided to have her continue writing my scripts sans subox0ne. She did recently (finally) get the dreded letter to lower benz0s, so I decided to start titrating off the xan@x and eventually stay on the klon0pin, or possibly switch it over to v@lium instead.

,Can confirm the subs from macro are good, tried it recently. As someone mentioned earlier, theirs has no nalxone which partially blocks the opioid pain-killing effect.

would bup sublingual tabs be indicated for anxiety, if prescribed by a psychiatrist?  what indications are they approved for?
Reply

Not for anxiety.  Prescribed and indicated for only 2 conditions 

1. Pain, due to its partial opioid agonist properties

2. Opioid dependence, Medication assisted treatment, or opioid replacement therapy, all the same meaning just different titles.

If you have number# 2 (dependence) and experience #1( pain).  Usually they will keep you on buprenorphine and buprenorphine only.   Liability is much lower and safer.

Take care.
