Hello,

Elimination half-life refers to the amount of time it takes for half of a single dose of a drug to leave the body. For buprenorphine, this period lasts for 37 hours, meaning that it can take over 8 days for Suboxone to no longer be detectable in a person's body.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
