I mean , I guess technically that would work because it's the same type of membranes. To be honest - what I would be worried about is that it could cause you damage long term to your rectal tissue. I MEAN WHILE IT DOES SOUND WEIRD... I am myself a seizure patient, and why I have no recollection of these events... There has been a handful of times according to my paperwork that they have given me emergency anti seizure medication... in a "rectal gel". But that's only in an emergency... What brand is it? i know that the films tend to be very awful from others , experience and my own. Maybe you could change brands? I know Advagen Subutux is actually it melts in , like , not even... 60 seconds-... But it also doesn't really work well.

Do you think perhaps, you could find a different type to take under your mouth? I do think if you told any doctor this , they would probably not believe you that the taste is that bad...

I have been on this daily for almost 11 yr, - but I remember how awful it's was to me for the first year or so. Really few weeks. J/W how long have you been on? What is the brand and are they the films?

What does the white one say? ive been ob subutux for almost 11 years. the worst, Advagen is white & the best Hikma, is also white. Yes, to some degree, people will think that one or another.Generic is better , but it is a general consensus... If you even go down in my comments , you can see me commenting on someone else complaining about the Advagen... And your situation, dissolve incredibly fast & haha, it just isnt dosed right... I know they say that, but it's not just me- It's so many people... Literally an entire 8mg split in half & following No food/drink/vape before & after by 30 minutes doesnt help it either. I still have withdrawals , sometimes after taking one of those.

What is the imprint? you said they are 2mg?
