How Long After Taking Suboxone Can I Take Hydrocodone For Surgery? (Page 2)
(Newest replies first)

I've been taking 8 mg/2mg Suboxone strips for 1 year. I am having a molar extraction in the morning. I took my Suboxone strip this morning & the tooth extraction is tomorrow at 9:30 am. If I don't take Suboxone again before the procedure, would I be able to take Hydrocodone after the surgery? I don't want to get sick, and I am concerned of going through it with no pain medications. Any advice appreciated!

I know you posted a while ago but for anyone else reading and wondering you could have taken that sizzurp at 50 hours and been feeling great. Wish I had some.

This is dangerous misinformation. Suboxone is not an opiate, it is an opioid. It is also only a partial agonist/antagonist meaning it doesn't make you feel high when on it for maintenance and to say someone isn't clean is debatable but suboxone will not show AS an opiate it will show as BUP aka buprenorphine. It is not 99.9% pure, etc. You must be one of THOSE people. Knowing a lot doesn't matter if a lot of what you know is wrong. Do some research next time before posting potentially dangerous misinformation.

Lainey: either you broke the law and committed felony for distributing narcotics or your friends committed a felony for stealing your Suboxone. Maybe both. It appears your friends are drug addicts and have very little regard for your well being. I would be astonished if your pain med Dr. would give you any more before your renewal date. You could obtain other opiates to dodge full withdrawal from Suboxone however most likely you and your supplier would have to both commit another felony for distribution. By day sixteen you will be in withdrawals. This is far from life threatening as I have not heard of anyone who has died from Suboxone withdrawal. I have met people who continued to work their daily schedule while detoxing and withdrawing. You leave yourself with two choices. Either suck up and go through the withdrawals or break the law. Remember if you supplement with other opiates, you will have to go into withdrawals before taking your Suboxone in order to have it work properly. Poor decisions can be painful.

Hi I've been on suboxozone for a few months now. I had some friends over and now all of it is gone and I still have 17 days until I can refill it. I have some sort of cough or bronchitis and my dr have me a cough syrup with hydrocodoine. How long should I wait to use the cough syrup? Haven't taken sub in 50 hours. Need some help please

Suboxone is an opiate. In fact it is probably one of the strongest opiates made today. If you think you are clean of opiates, get a u/a and you'll see you are not. Secondly, try to get off of subs and it is hell ten times over. It is plain wrong to think you are clean if you are on subs. You are on a synthetic opiates which is 99.9% pure called Suboxone.

I quit Suboxone & now I am more sensitive to opiates. 2 5mg hydros & I'm in Lala land. I'm thinking this is great! Then...withdrawals came back when the pills wore off! I have to have oral surgery, but detoxing from subs was an effing nightmare & I still have bad days. I'm confused-that tooth has to be taken care of-has to. It's infecting the whole right side of my face! I don't have a dr to talk to about this, my drs have a sub clinic in the next town! They deny PAWS exists! I have obvious psychiatric issues is the official diagnosis. I do...but hey, lol.

I've been on suboxone for a month. Had four teeth extracted two days ago. Didn't take a sub or anything for pain yesterday because I knew the sub would block pain med. Took a Roxy twenty this morning. Didn't work and still in pain. How soon can I take a sub? I'm in terrible pain.

Thank you for your advise. I decided to just stay with the Suboxone & see how things went. I can't believe I almost risked all that I was contemplating risking. I have had NO pain, headache, nothing. I guess the Suboxone does relieve pain because I had none. For whatever reason, I have absolutely no pain! The point is I have been off of all opiates for over a year with no desire for opiates, but I was freaking out about this oral surgery. It was a breeze. Thanks again!

Hi, you can use hydros after you have your tooth pulled but it,s not gonna do much. You would be better off taking extra suboxone after you had extraction. Suboxone only works for about 4-5hrs for pain relief. Of course it works much longer keeping wds away and stuff like that. I was speaking to my sub dr just the other day about this. I have addiction issues and pain issues. This is why he has me split up my dose 3 times a day. You can try the hydro but I,m sure it won,t do much. If you take the hydros be sure to wait the recommended length of time before going back on the subs. Just because you can,t feel the hydro there still in your system.
