Report
When administered at a proper dose by a licensed professional, methadone will not make you high. Buprenorphine, commonly known as Subutex or Suboxone, offers a more flexible form of medication-assisted treatment. Unlike methadone, buprenorphine has a ceiling effect, which prevents people from misusing it since it doesn't allow people to feel any euphoric effects.
