Can Any Doctor in Austin Prescribe Subutex?
Question by John Smith: Can any doctor in Austin prescribe Subutex?
I live in Austin, TX and am 19. Unfortunately, I’m addicted to heroin really bad, and I want to quit so bad. There’s a Suboxone clinic on East Ave., East on 35 of Holly, but with Suboxone you have to be off of H for 2 days. I’ve called a few docs from turntohelp.com, but most are clinics, and I have insurance and need a regular doc to help me out. Also I want to go to Heroin Anonymous which is supposed to now have meetings Saturday’s at 1pm but I don’t know where. Anybody help me out please?

Good job trying to get clean. It’s hard, a family member did it. Only certain doctors with special ID numbers can write the prescriptions. Call your regular doctor or go to the hospital if you don’t have an primary doctor to get a referral or the name of a doctor who can.
here’s some doctors in TX that can:

under a few on page one, it says “Austin”
here’s more info on suboxone treatment: http://www.fda.gov/CDER/DRUG/infopage/subutex_suboxone/subutex-qa.htm
central TX Narcotics Anonymous meetings, hope this is your area:

they should have a phone number and maybe they can tell you what doctor to go to for suboxone treatment.
good luck, i’ll be praying for you.
