How To Identify Suboxone Based On Its Physical Attributes?

My daughter is a heroine attic and she is trying to get off heroin. She brought a couple pills home and said they were suboxone. They are dark yellow capsules. From what I have read they don t come in this form. Can you tell me what if this is suboxone or what these pills are.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Suboxone is an opioid used to treat opioid addiction. The active ingredient, Buprenorphine, helps reduce withdrawal symptoms and craving associated with opioid addiction.

Yes, they are in also come in yellow colour and for your information colour of medication has to do nothing with it.

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