Suboxone Patient Assistance Program - Patient Assistance Programs

Summary

Reckitt Benckiser began in 1814 by Jeremiah Colman in Norwich, UK as a flour and mustard milling plant. About thirty years later, the company was passed on to his sons, who begin manufacturing such household products as starch, as well as washing blue and black lead for polishing. Growing exponentially over the next century, Reckitt Benckiser acquires such companies as Woolite and Easy Off, becoming the leading distributor and owner of household cleaning products. Looking to enter the over the counter healthcare market, Reckitt purchased Boots Healthcare International in 2006.

Suboxone is an opiate medication launched by Reckitt Benckiser in 2002. Suboxone has been approved by the FDA to treat opiate dependency. Suboxone is administered orally via a tablet which is to be placed under the tongue to be dissolved.
