After tracking thousands of patients for 24 months, here’s what they found:

Suboxone had a higher dropout rate (88.8%) vs methadone (81.5%)

Suboxone was linked to lower risk of opioid-related death

Methadone is a full opioid agonist requiring daily clinic visits

Suboxone is a partial agonist with built-in safety (naloxone) and can be prescribed for home use
