What is Suboxone® Treatment?

You want to stop, but you cannot put your job, your family, or your routine on hold. Our Des Plaines Suboxone® clinic is built for that reality.

Your medical provider starts your first dose once you are in adequate withdrawal. You dose at the clinic daily for an initial period while your medication is fine-tuned. Once your dose is steady and your follow-ups are consistent, take-home prescriptions become available.

Medication for opioid use disorder

This is not 'trading one addiction for another'

Suboxone® is medicine that quiets withdrawal and cravings so your brain can heal.

How Suboxone® Works

When you start treatment at our Des Plaines Suboxone® clinic, your medical provider sets your dose based on what your body needs and how you have responded to medications before. Here is how the medication helps:

01

Quiets Withdrawal

Relief usually shows up within an hour of an appropriate first dose. Stable, not sedated.

02

Reduces Cravings

One dose in the morning carries through the day. The clock stops running your week.

03

Frees Up Your Day

Once your dose is consistent, you stop thinking about your cravings and start planning around your job, your family, and your week.

Suboxone® Clinic Des Plaines: Frequently Asked Questions

How quickly can I start Suboxone treatment in Des Plaines?

Most patients complete a same-day or next-day assessment at our Des Plaines Suboxone® (buprenorphine) clinic. Medication initiation timing depends on when you are in adequate withdrawal, which varies by individual and the substance you have been using. While we offer same-day assessments, your first dose may need to be timed based on your individual situation.

Do I have to come to the Des Plaines clinic every day for Suboxone?

Yes, at first you dose daily at our Des Plaines clinic, because Symetria asks Suboxone® (buprenorphine) patients to dose in person for an initial period. Pickup and dosing schedules adjust as your treatment progresses and your dose settles.

Can I switch from methadone to Suboxone in Des Plaines?

Yes, transitioning from methadone to Suboxone® (buprenorphine) is possible, and our medical providers can talk through whether the timing and your history make it the right move for you.

Will Suboxone show up on a drug test?

Standard 5-panel screens generally do not detect Suboxone® (buprenorphine). Extended panels can. Our team can provide employer documentation about your medical treatment when you ask.

Can I take Suboxone if I am pregnant?

Yes, Suboxone® (buprenorphine) is considered a safe option during pregnancy. Our medical providers coordinate with your OB-GYN throughout your treatment.

What if Suboxone is not working for me?

Then we explore other options together and figure out what works for your current situation. Our expert medical providers are here to help find the right treatment for you, whether that means adjusting the dose, counseling sessions, or moving to methadone.

What makes the Des Plaines Suboxone clinic different?

Our Des Plaines Suboxone clinic has medical providers who take time during your appointments, schedules that adapt as your treatment progresses, and counseling that complements the medication treatment, so the visit never feels like an assembly line.

Is counseling part of treatment at the Suboxone clinic?

Yes, counseling is available and unlimited for every patient at our Des Plaines Suboxone® (buprenorphine) clinic. It is here when you are ready to use it.
