Answers:   

Knot on go before, I don't know how it get at hand. Please assistance?

A thebaine drug is a drug that is derived from the opium alkaloid Thebaine to put it simply. Drugs like Naltrexone, Naloxone, Buprenorphine (Suboxone) are call Thebaine derivatives because during the production process, Thebaine is the starting product. Even commercial Oxycodone is made from Thebaine.

(A better way to classify drugs actually would be by their diversion at various receptors ie. whether it behaves as an agonist at a receptor or as an antagonist.)

You can't compare Buprenorphine (Suboxone) to anything else since no other drug have a similar profile to it (at least no other drug on the commercial market. In research we enjoy a few). It acts as a partial agonist at the Mu-Opioid-Receptor and a full antagonist at the Kappa-Opioid-Receptor.
(For an explanation on what an agonist or antagonist is, please see the answer in this quiz:
