Keeps Some People Awake
Some people who take buprenorphine report that it can cause insomnia and sleeplessness if it is taken directly before bed. Because Buprenorphine is long acting, the mild stimulating effects can persist for many hours. [1-mu]
Dosage Notes
600µg is considered equivalent to 10mg morphine for pain relief.
Taste
Sublingual tablets taste bad.
