There are much better options in the UK. I have been attending an evening clinic once a month for the past couple of years where I'm given 2 x two-week prescriptions for buprenorphine which are dispensed by a pharmacy once a week. When I first attended I had to collect the prescription every day - which I did after work - but after a month or so they trusted me enough to move to once-a-month. It doesn't affect my job as it's all done in the evening and the only time I had to visit during the day was my first session there where I met with a doctor to assess my condition and that was a saturday. I've also been on holiday a number of times and they provide enough to cover me while I'm away as long as I give them 2-weeks notice and provide proof of the holiday and it's duration. I have been slowly reducing my daily dose and I'm now close to stopping entirely and it's been totally painless. The staff are always friendly and I can't express how much they've changed my life.
