Answer by playground.love
Suboxtin or Suboxone (buprenorphine and naloxone) is used to treat opiate addiction… basically the drug itself is an opioid… Buprenorphine is the opioid and Naloxone blocks the effects of other opioids. The reason they use it even though it’s an opioid (it’s addictive) they believe it’s easier to quit than heroin, morphine, codeine etc. It doesn’t give you the same pleasant symptoms that people crave from those kinds of drugs, so they believe that’s why it’s easier to stop taking. So they switch you from whatever drug, onto this drug… then eventually get you off that drug. Because most people find it too intense to try and quit things like heroin cold turkey

Is there a pharmaceutical drug that is safer and more beneficial than marijuana?
Question by jose: Is there a pharmaceutical drug that is safer and more beneficial than marijuana?
Marijuana in the natural form, being smoked, eaten, or vaporized (to remove carcinogenic properties). Is there anything out there, man made, that can benefit more illnesses, diseases, disorders both physical and psychological, etc?
Edit-
@ vincent, Marinol isn’t cheap, has some unwanted side effects, and has to be taken orally so it rules out patients with strong nausea (like chemo patients) who can’t keep their food down
@matt not everyone can use acetaminophen because of adverse reactions with other medications that can cause death.. I think it’s somewhere around 10k deaths a year…. Marijuana has never directly killed anyone, and to say it has no medical benefit is hilarious, especially when the American Government has allowed people to use government weed for years. Granted most of those individuals are now dead but there were ~13 in all. Oh and if there is no benefit from marijuana why does marinol exist? use your thinkety think before you speak
@metalplanttag- you didn’t answer my question you just compared the withdrawals of marijuana to nicotine. Yes in really chronic users I could see them suffering from mild agitation, insomnia and things of that nature which yes do mimic nicotine withdrawals but Nicotine addiction is much much stronger and harder to beat. Also “addictions” for marijuana are what,~10% of users… What’s the statistics for people with addictive personalities again? ~10% too right? If i’m mistaken by a significant amount please correct me.
Keep in mind though that addiction rates in the US that go by rehab centers more often than not cite examples from court ordered individuals. Meaning they chose rehab over jail time. But your quote did say something interesting, something about not many scientific studies have being done.. right? kinda like the AMA calling for marijuana to be rescheduled so they can do more studies
“Despite the public controversy, less than small randomized controlled trials of short d
uration involving ~300 patients have been conducted over the last 35 years on smoked cannabis” and “Our AMA urges that marijuana’s status as a federal Schedule I controlled substance be reviewed with the goal of facilitating
the conduct of clinical research and development of cannabinoid-based medicines, and alternate delivery methods” http://www.ama-assn.org/resources/doc/cs…
I know your post didn’t specifically say you were against marijuana for medical purposes but when compared to the addiction rates of Benzo’s stemming from use for psychological disorders like anxiety, or PTSD wouldn’t marijuana be a better choice? that is just one example and the science is out there to back it if NIDA would back american based studies on it, instead of us having to rely mostly on European studies

Who is Heather Dylan?

Best answer:
Answer by _anonymous
Early Life and Family
Born Heather Mae Lahey on June 13, 1990 in Johannesburg, South Africa is the adopted daughter of Jakob Dylan and Nicole Paige Denny (now former actress, Paige Dylan). Dylan was granted sole custody of Heather in 1999, when she was just 9 years old. Her name was promptly and legally changed to Heather Amor Dylan in 2000. Heather’s first language is Afrikaans, English is her second she is also semi-fluent in Bali. Her birth parents are Richard Lahey, a real estate broker and her birth mother Corine Lahey, is the manager of the Westcliff Hotel in Johannesburg. She had one sister, Nicole Lahey and is a fraternal twin to a brother Broden Lahey who died at the age of 4 due to heart complications. Ironically, her parents thought since they can not raise the twins together, that they didn’t want Heather. Mr. Dylan became aware of the situation and took care of her until legal paperwork was filed. Aside from her birth family, she has four brothers but is the oldest. She currently resides at her family’s home in Pennsylvania and often travels back and forth to her TriBeCa apartment in New York City. Heather is known for being a relatively private person. She does not like to be in the public eye or having media attention. This could very well be the reason she lives in Pennsylvania. Her birth parents frequently visit her in her PA home.During the summer of ’06 they paid a visit to her home in Pennsylvania. Her family (i.e. birth parents, and sister) were staying with her Dylan’s birth sister, Nicole was killed in July of 2006. Nicole was stabbed in the lower neck by her fiancee for reasons unknown.
Education
Heather attended the American International School of Johannesburg through elementary school. Later, when she became a citizen of the United States, she was enrolled in Brentwood School located in Los Angeles County for three years. Afterwards, she would transfer to The Meadow Lodge Day Treatment Center in Northern California as an impatient. The media assumed there was an ongoing drug related problem Heather was battling, but not so according to her parents. One month after their daughter was admitted in the program, they released a joint-statement to the press: “As parents of a truant child, we have come to the conclusion of enrolling our daughter into a more promising program. We can deny any assumptions of an existing drug or alcohol problem.We simply want Heather to attend school and get the most out of this experience.” Although the Meadow Lodge is known for treating substance abuse problems, the family supposedly arranged that Heather would live on the campus grounds and therefore being ‘forced’ to attend classes. She stayed at Meadow for a year, and after that tried homeschooling. This approach seemed to be the answer because she graduated when she was 15. At age 16, Dylan attended The American Academy of Dramatic Arts in New York City. She bought an apartment and graduated from the program which had a duration of 4 months.
Car Accident
Heather was involved in a life-threatening car accident on March 11, 2006 in Hershey,Pennsylvania. She and a friend were traveling to a nearby venue while traveling on Interstate 83. While a Tractor Trailer driver was under the influence and cut in front of their car. This lead to Heather’s car smashed and literally crushed against a concrete side barrier. The two were hospitalized, the friend was only admitted for 3 days. However, Heather was in the ICU for nearly 2 months. At first, it was reported that she had minimal chance of survival and that she was on life support. In need of emergency surgery because of a crushed spine, she had metal screws and plates inserted into her spine. According to a close family friend, Heather needed physical therapy for about a year and a half following.
Music Career
Following in her father’s footsteps, Heather writes and produces music in her home studio in Pennsylvania.
