How big is a Suboxone strip?

Sublingual suboxone film containing buprenorphine and naloxone is a paper-thin, orange-colored rectangular strip. The two strengths (buprenorphine with naloxone 2 mg / 0.5 mg and 8 mg /2 mg) have the same length and width (about 22 x 13 mm), but are distinguished by a white ink imprint of the product strength on each film: 'N2' and 'N8', respectively. Each film is packaged in a sachet, and each carton contains 28 films.
