What will be the name of the generic for suboxone and the price?
There is no name for generic Suboxone bacause there are no available generic brands for it yet in Canada or the USA. I hear they're working on some in Australia where the drug was first released but no info on anything in reach. Hope this was helpful, Suboxone is very expensive but it works wonders. Much better than Methadone but Methadone is a much cheaper option, only $6 a day in comparison to Suboxone which is anywhere from $20- $30 depending on where it is dispensed from.

Can you take famotidine while on methadone?
Yes you can. But if you are looking for a potentiometer, Cimetidine is the heartburn medicine that is best for someone when on methadone. When you run out of Famotidine, see if you can get some Tagamet or generic Tagamet which is "Cimetidine" then maybe your methadone will go a bit farther. But studies have shown that neither Famotidine (Pepcid) nor Ranitidine (Zantac) show any negative drug interactions with methadone, they just dont offer the potentiometer effect that you get from Cemetidine (Tagamet).. Hope this helps :-)
