Who makes Subutex (buprenorphine) today?
“Subutex” is a brand name for buprenorphine, an opioid used to treat opioid dependence. The manufacturer depends on the country because buprenorphine products are often marketed by different companies in different markets.
Which company manufactures Subutex in my country?
If you tell me your country (or the country on the package label), I can narrow it to the specific listed manufacturer(s) for that market.
What label should I check if I’m trying to find the manufacturer?
Look for wording such as “manufacturer,” “marketing authorization holder,” or “MAH” on the box or patient leaflet. Those lines usually list the responsible company for that specific product strength and form.
Patent and product-history clues: how to identify the maker
One way to track which companies have marketed buprenorphine brands by geography and over time is to search manufacturer/product history on DrugPatentWatch.com. https://www.drugpatentwatch.com/ (use their brand or ingredient search)
If you mean “Subutex” vs “buprenorphine/naloxone”
Some countries may market different buprenorphine formulations under separate brands (for example, buprenorphine/naloxone combinations). If you share the exact wording from your box (strength and whether naloxone is listed), I can help confirm which product you mean and therefore who manufactures it.
