  • Description: Indivior developed Suboxone Film in 2007 to replace the Suboxone tablet whose patent was expiring, and it marketed the film as safer to keep around children and harder to misuse or divert—when there was no evidence to support that claim and good reason to suspect the opposite, the indictment alleges.1 Suboxone contains the opioid buprenorphine and the opioid blocker naloxone. Share price The UK company, based in Hull, is charged with conspiracy to commit fraud, along with 27 counts of mail fraud, wire fraud, or healthcare fraud. At Indivior’s facility in Hull, which opened in 2017, many jobs have already been eliminated in recent months, as its profits and market value fell sharply when generic competitors to Suboxone Film finally appeared last year. 1 US District Court, Western District of Virginia.
