Let's take a minute to talk about your medication.

This is Zubsolv. It is an important part of treatment to help people who are dependent on opioid drugs.

You should take this medicine exactly as prescribed. Zubsolv is a sublingual tablet. You should place the tablet under your tongue and let it dissolve completely. This should take about 5 minutes. Remember not to chew, swallow, eat, drink, or talk while the tablet is dissolving. You should read the "Instructions for Use" for full information. If you still have questions, your doctor or pharmacist can help.

Many people will have side effects. Common side effects include headache, nausea, sweating, pain, and constipation. Some people have trouble sleeping and swelling of their hands or feet. These effects are normal if they are mild and should go away. Zubsolv can also cause drowsiness. You should wait until you know how it affects you before doing activities that require you to be alert, like driving. If these or other side effects become reasons you want to stop taking this medication, please talk to your doctor or pharmacist. You should not suddenly stop taking this medicine, unless your doctor says it's okay.

As with any medicine, rare but serious side effects could occur. You should read the Medication Guide to know which symptoms to watch for and when to get emergency medical help. 

Zubsolv can have dangerous drug interactions. Always check with your doctor or pharmacist before taking other medicines, and do not drink alcohol.

This medicine is controlled by federal law. It can be dangerous to others, so store it in a safe place. After you stop taking it you should dispose of it properly. Ask your pharmacist about proper disposal options in your area or go to the FDA.gov website for more information.
Zubsolv can harm babies. Women must talk to their doctors before becoming pregnant or breastfeeding.

For best results with Zubsolv, be sure to follow your doctor's orders for counseling and therapy.
