Unlike methadone, which is a full agonist, Suboxone is only a partial agonist opioid. As a partial agonist, it still activates the opioid receptors in the brain
Medications Full opioid agonist – Methadone Partial opioid agonist – Buprenorphine Partial opioid agonist/antagonist – Buprenorphine/Naloxone Opioid
Unlike Methadone, however, they work because Buprenorphine is a partial opioid agonist. A partial agonist does not release as many chemical

Opioid agonists work by acting on opioid receptors in the brain. Methadone is an opioid agonist. Partial Agonist: A partial agonist is a drug that binds to and
Methadone is a full opioid agonist, while buprenorphine is a partial agonist. This means buprenorphine is not as powerful as methadone. It causes less euphoria
