What are the side effects of Suboxone and why does it make you feel sick?
Feeling sick on Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) is actually pretty common, especially when you're first starting treatment. The good news is that for most people, these side effects improve as your body adjusts over the first few days or weeks.
Common side effects that might be making you feel sick include:
* Nausea or upset stomach
* Headache
* Constipation
* Sweating
* Trouble sleeping
* Mouth irritation where the film dissolves
The nausea and general "sick" feeling are particularly common in the early stages of treatment while your dose is being adjusted. Your body is adapting to the medication, and this adjustment period can be uncomfortable.
If you're feeling severely sick or having trouble breathing, severe dizziness, confusion, or extreme drowsiness, you should call your doctor right away. These could be signs of a more serious reaction.
It's worth talking to your healthcare provider about what you're experiencing. They may be able to adjust your dose or suggest ways to manage the side effects better. Don't stop taking it suddenly without medical guidance, as that can cause withdrawal symptoms.
