We serve patients across the state — from Centerville, Cleveland, Brentwood, Columbia, Cookeville, and LaVergne— while making care feel local and accessible in McMinn County.
Suboxone (buprenorphine/naloxone) helps by:
- Reducing withdrawal symptoms
- Decreasing cravings
- Blocking the effects of other opioids
It can be safely started when transitioning from hydrocodone, oxycodone, morphine, codeine, Percocet, OxyContin, oxymorphone, heroin, fentanyl, methadone, kratom, 7-OH, and other opioids.
Information about opioid safety and regulation can be found through the FDA, DEA , and SAMHSA.
Tired of Visiting Clinics and Pharmacies? You Don’t Have to Anymore
We know the frustrations and stigmas often associated with addiction treatment, as well as the time it takes to visit a clinic, sit in a waiting room with people you don’t know, wondering if you’re being judged, watching the clock in hopes of leaving within a few hours. Sadly, your day doesn’t end there. You then have to drive to a pharmacy to pick up your Suboxone medications, which can sometimes be met with judgement, stigma, embarrassment, and even rejection.
By utilizing our Suboxone telemedicine program and overnight medication delivery pharmacy partner, you’ll never have to visit a clinic or pharmacy again.
