Hi.i had gone trough your query.Suboxone is the choice to prevent opioid withdrawal. Methadone is opioid derivatives and due to long action it will produce less severe withdrawal.Need to increase dose of suboxone to reduce withdrawal features. Take advise from your treating doctor for better recovery.Avoid opioid or methadone in between for better recovery.Symptomatic treatment of withdrawal features are also advisable.Thank you.I hope i have answered your query.Get well soon.
