Suboxone is now used for pain management today. I think that quote from Drugs.com is old.
It binds heavily to pain receptors, and will bump off other opiates, in fact...so one has to be careful with it.
We have some threads on our bipolar forum here, about using it for refractive depression, in fact. It seems to increase dopamine in the brain, and this then gives a feeling of less depression.
