I don't know much about online pharmacies. There are these companies that have a doctor who will do a brief phone consult and then prescribe whatever you need (or, I suspect, want), and then the pharmacy will mail it to you (the doctor and the pharmacy are both part of the same company, that is).
I'm pretty sure there are no OPs in the U.S. that carry buprenorphine. I'd be leery of non-U.S. ones. (In general those things are a bad risk, IMHO.)
One other thing: buprenorphine is likely to be expensive. You might be better off getting Norco 10/325 or whatever they have at those places.

You're having dyskinesias or dystonias from Geodon??? (It's not "tardive" if you get it right after starting it!) Or are you just worrying about it? I wouldn't; the risk is dose-related and is almost certainly very low. Weight gain is supposed to be minimal with Geodon, too, I gather.
