Curious Question About Different Forms Of Subutex

Updated

I have been on subutex 54 411 white 8mg Tablets for almost 2 Years now, If you do not want to be on another pain medication I strongly believe this is the way to go I have always had a prescription but now I am asking my doctor to lower me off of them I am down to 1 a day where I was at 2 a day I will tell you that 1 full 8mg subutex will not give you any withdraws within 24hrs that's how long they are made to last a lot of the withdraw symptoms are in your head..an 8mg subutex pill fills up your receptors in your brain enough to last you 1 full day. I have heard of other people taking other pain medication between it and not being sick because their is NO naloxone in the Subutex; (NO Blocker) for other pain medication. I will say I am very iffy about coming off of them and very nervous with that being said I am proscribed a nerve medication the whole time going through this process...I have also heard here in TN they are going to stop selling the 54 411 8mg Tablets and this was just last week when I heard that my pharmacy told me they would only be having the smaller ones I have tried the smaller ones in the past fro. A different pharmacy because I don't have insurance so I get what ever type of tablet they have in stock...I do not feel that the smaller subutex effect me with my pain the same as the bigger ones...they dissolve faster but they do not seem the same but again that could be my subconscious...What are others opinion on the smaller tablet?

In response to the 1st message on white pills, subutex I believe... If any of ur meds are made by SANDOZ - ask ur pharmacist or insurance to call, and switch to a different MFG. I'm in the same boat. 2yrs. White pills suck. One with a cross on them and look like stop signs are the best (I think discontinued). Or films. I have tried the white ones, NO GOOD, I tried the small minty ones also, they didn't compare. EVERY NAME BRAND NAME MED HAS THE SAME EXACT FORMULA IN A GENERIC PILL 100% FACT I've changed 3 of my MFG'S on 3 meds.

You have to let it disolve under the tongue or you wont get the full effect. THE LOWER DOSES dont work for me. That's because the chronic pain i suffer from has increased and also my threshold has always been high. They've increased my dosage of 8.2 milligrams to 3 to four a day. I receive 4 boxes of 30 tabs in each one. Walgreens and Cvs fill my prescription.
