(1) We also know that both marijuana and Suboxone are depressant drugs, so they suppress the central nervous system and could potentially lead to respiratory depression (slowing or stopping breathing), coma, and even death. The dangers of combining Suboxone with cannabis are not as significant as combining Suboxone with benzodiazepines (like xanax, klonopin, ativan, valium) or with alcohol. However, patients should be aware of this potential threat, especially if they […]

Does Suboxone interact with other drugs or medications? Buprenorphine interacts with other sedative medications—medications that make you tired and slow you down. These include medications like benzodiazepines: alprazolam (brand name: xanax), clonazepam (brand name: klonopin), diazepam (brand name: valium), and lorazepam (brand name: ativan); muscle relaxers; tranquilizers; sleeping agents; and alcohol. All these medications depress your central nervous system and have an additive effect. Taking too many can lead to respiratory depression (slowing or stopping of your breathing) and overdose. In low quantities, these might be safe with Buprenorphine, but […]
