In some cases, addiction can be so strong that to get clean, a person has to be given another substance to slowly come off of a drug they were using and to counteract the effects that the original drug was causing. In the case of opioid addiction, the drug Suboxone - a name brand of the drug Naloxone - is used to inhibit opioids' effects on a person's body, slowly allowing them to become less dependent. How long does Suboxone stay in your system, though?[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation="" row_type="row" use_row_as_full_screen_section="no" type="full_width" angled_section="no" text_align="left" background_image_as_pattern="without_pattern"][vc_column][vc_column_text] Suboxone half-life [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation="" row_type="row" use_row_as_full_screen_section="no" type="full_width" angled_section="no" text_align="left" background_image_as_pattern="without_pattern"][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_column_text]The half-life of a drug refers to how long it takes for half of a dose of a substance to leave the bloodstream and no longer be detectable in the user. In the case of Suboxone, it has an unusually long half-life of 37 hours. This means that for one full dose of Suboxone to leave a person's body, it would take approximately eight days. This also only refers to the drug's half-life when it is checked via a blood test. When testing urine, the time it stays detectable could be even longer, and in the case of a hair follicle test, there can be trace amounts of the drug found months later.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width="1/2"][vc_single_image image="3125" img_size="full" alignment="center" style="vc_box_rounded" qode_css_animation=""][vc_empty_space height="5px"][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation="" row_type="row" use_row_as_full_screen_section="no" type="full_width" angled_section="no" text_align="left" background_image_as_pattern="without_pattern"][vc_column][vc_column_text] Testing for suboxone There is one particular caveat for testing for the drug Suboxone. Because it is a semi-synthetic opioid, it does not show up on a standard drug test. However, it is possible for it to show up on a more specialized drug test or when a person to be tested specifically for that drug. This means that if a person were to be tested for Suboxone specifically, the bare minimum amount of time that would need to pass for it not to be detectable is greater than eight days.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row css_animation="" row_type="row" use_row_as_full_screen_section="no" type="full_width" angled_section="no" text_align="left" background_image_as_pattern="without_pattern" el_class="cta" z_index=""][vc_column][vc_column_text] In-Home Addiction Recovery With Elite Home Detox Suboxone is a special drug in and of itself because it is a partially synthetic opioid that is used to treat opioid addiction.
