Try Suboxone dissenzation.
This table includes him much and how often. Your getting same amount everyday except smaller dilluted (potency is still 100%) amounts more often. If you are on films just substitute films for tablets. Btw I'm no Dr. But I am also allergic to subs. They make me itch like crazy if I take a full dose all at once. So I cut my sub into 4 pieces and disolve 1/4 of a strip in 1/4 cup of water and drink it. I do this 4 times a day so that I still get a full dose a day (1 strip or 8mg a day). Good luck. ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2850949/table/T1/?report=previmg

Talk to your pharmacist and ask if those seem to be allergy symptoms or serious side effects. It also might be possible for you to switch to subutex, and that doesn't have the naloxone in it. It could be the naloxone you are allergic to and if that is the case, you should still be able to take subutex. You need to ask your sub doc to at least try switching you to rule that out. I wish you had listed how much subs you were on. If you are on more than 16 mgs, you could be reacting to having too much in your system.You can hit comment and list details, it sure would help us.

If you are on the films as opposed to the tablets, this could also be the reason you are feeling ill and breaking out, the films don't agree with all patients.

im on the tablets, i take 2 a day. well supposed to but does horrible damage to my tongue... I went to the emergency room and everything the night before my doctor appointment and they said i have stomatitis, which acidy and lemon and lime stuff causes my tongue to react that way, so i go to the doctor and the nurse tells me i need to be switched... then my doc comes in and says welll maybe we should just try going to one a day, i havnt been goin there but for like 5months. hes dropping me too quick and i cannot take suboxone!

That does sound like allergy, wonder if you could do the generic subutex and do a really low dose, I am not sure if it has the lemon lime acid taste. You might check around to see, it is true that most side effects on subs are greatly diminished when someone drops the dose down. I will keep you in my Prayers.
