Dear Kamal,
Are you dependent on narcotics? Buprenorphine makes this addictive habit less risky. You may not overdose and die of narcotics. With buprenorphine, less withdrawal symptoms. All the other tablets may be for your associated mental health issues or management of withdrawal symptoms or for medical complication of your habit of taking narcotics. Please decide for something less harmful so that you can have better quality of life.

Do not worry, break the tablets into 4 pieces (pill cutters are availnbale in teh amrket) and consume. As for capsules, they will be easier to swallow and you cannot break them. However you may find ubstitutes for the capsule in a tablet form.

May not have same effect.

Instead of wasting money in experiments and over the counter suggestion, better start proper homeopathic treatment early.
Save time and money both.

Dear Pragya,
I hope you know what will happen if you skip the dose. Alcohol along with it depends on whether you drink wine/beer or hot drinks. It depends on the quantity also. It also depends on what food you take along with alcohol, whether you will be driving after drinking and whether you have any medical illnesses, your weight, etc.
