I've been on Buprenorphine/naloxone 2mg/0.5mg SL Tb for about 6 months now, and I've had a mix of good and bad experiences. It's definitely helped me manage withdrawal symptoms and cravings, but I've had some side effects that I wasn't expecting. Anyone else taking this and experiencing similar things? I'd love to hear your stories. I've had a few episodes of dizziness and stomach pain and I've realized I have been feeling more sleepy and weak. I've also had periods of trouble sleeping and its frustrating. I've hearing some scary side effects that I didn't even know could happen. Does anyone else have information about the risk of serotonin syndrome?

I had a really bad experience with this drug. It gave me such a headache, stomach pain and it made me feel so weak I could barely move. It was awful, and I'm glad I'm off it now.

I think it's great that you're sharing your experience. It can be really helpful for others to know what to expect. I've had similar issues with the nausea and sleepiness, but taking the tablets under the tongue as directed has helped a bit. Does anyone have a good solution for the sleepiness?

I've been on Buprenorphine/naloxone for a year, and the withdrawal symptoms have been much more manageable. I did experience dizziness and nausea initially, but they subsided over time.

I'm getting concerned about the serious side effects. I have been having trouble with my vision and I'm confused sometimes. My brain feels so foggy and it's really messing with the way I do my job. It could be all the changes and my body adjusting, but I'm not sure.

I wish I could get past the sleep apnea. I've had feelings of nervousness and dizziness--very fatigue and then sleepy. I've also had problems with sleep apnea and changes in balance, which has been really hard to deal with. Please let me know if you have any tips.
