Hello

Welcome to HCM

According to your history you are using buprenorphine( suboxone ) which is a opiod group of pain killer with addiction potential. Use that medication only if there is absolute need and recommended by certified physician for treatment purpose only. Regarding usage of drug without knowing composition could be dangerous even from a known friend. So best approach would be to avoid drugs without prescription especially it not advisable to take medication without labels. Consult your treating physician for further advise.

I hope you find this info helpful.

Wish u good health.
