It depends on the patient. Some people are fine taking it for just a few weeks. Others need to stay on it for years, or even their whole lives. It depends on how big the risk of relapse is. Personally, I have been on it for four years, and I still feel like if I went off it, sooner or later I'd be out buying heroin again.
