I'm going to attempt to get clean for the fifth time by taking suboxone. What exactly does this medicine do to your brain?

Suboxone blocks other opioids from having their full effect on your body and brain. For example, if you are addicted to heroin and you get started on suboxone, this medication will block the heroin from producing such powerful withdrawal symptoms. Ideally those symptoms will be kept to a minimum so that you have a better chance of making it through the withdrawals and continuing on with the recovery process.

When you take suboxone, the opioid enters the brain and binds to receptors without a perfect fit, which minimizes the effects of the drugs. In other words, when you consume suboxone, the medication blocks the effect of the opioid you are addicted to, making it easier for you to carry on with the process of getting sober and recovering.

Suboxone works in the brain by targeting opioid receptors and blocking other opioids from reaching their full effects. When these effects are blocked, you will see a noticeable difference in the withdrawal symptoms. The pain and discomfort associated with withdrawing from opioids is alleviated through suboxone use. Although you still may have some symptoms and side effects, they should not be as severe if you follow your doctor's orders.

Nothing good, I can tell you that much. Suboxone is just as addictive as the rest of those medications out there.
