What is Sublocade?

Sublocade is a weak opioid that is used to manage withdrawal in patients addicted to opioids. The active ingredient in Sublocade, buprenorphine, works just like an opioid and attaches to the same places in the brain that opioids do, but without the “high.”

Sublocade is injected once per month. The dose will depend on the severity of the withdrawal symptoms and will decrease over time to reduce dependence on opioids.

Because Sublocade is an addictive opioid drug being used to help manage opioid addiction, Sublocade is injected by a healthcare professional rather than purchased at a pharmacy.
