I get tested by the Probation Office and it is specially marked as BUP to be tested for the suboxone. It will NOT show up as opiates, they have to specially test for it. I have never taken the suboxone but I would like to know the length it stays in someones system. I read up to 72 hours but then I read a 16 mg dose can be in your system 9 to 12 days. Does anyone know for sure about this?

These replies are FALSE! except for the first guy who said it doesnt show unless specifically testing for it.
I get tested bi-monthly and will lose job if anything is detected and have NOT tested positive in a year!YOU people giving advice need a clue,seriously.

are you being serious? suboxone is an opiate deterrent as well as a blocker all though it has similar characteristics and generation of euphoria this IS NOT AN OPIATE it will only come up in a test should you be specifically tested for it it will not pop as percocet roxacet oxi or heroin thats the international prison and halfway house drug because we can all get away with it cant stand people who think they kno s*** from what others tell them pop a suboxone and go piss in a cup and tell me if u pop hot for opiates and get back to me

suboxone is not an opiate and you need to take a specific test to have it show up! Depending on the dose taken depends on the amount you take per day. Example if you take 1 a day it generally takes 3 to 6 days. If you take two a day it can take up to two weeks. I know this because of 1st hand experience not rumor!

Don't listen to the people saying it will show up as an opiate. They need to be specifically testing for it. Beware this is becoming more common however. Also, subs have a long half life. If you don't usually take it, you'd probably be fine (after taking a SMALL AMOUNT) in 48-72 hours. Larger amounts or prolonged usage could be a LOT longer.

Okay, here's the deal with Suboxone.Yes, is has a very, very small amount of opiate in it, and will NOT show up on an opiate "stick" test. Lab test...don't know. But IF...and only if they use an actual Suboxone Stick test, it will show up. It has a 72 hour HALF life. which means that in 72 hours, half of what you used will be gone. 72 more hours later, half of what is left will be gone, 72 hours later, half of what was left is STILL there. So, there is no definitive answer. It hugely depends on how much and how often. If I were to make a hypothesis, I would say that it will show anywhere from 10 to 30 days. Good Luck.

it is an opioid** and is very expensive to test for. most standard drug tests do NOT detect suboxone. it is an extremely expensive tests.. pain management doctors will test for it.. or suboxone plan doctors like the doctor i go to will obviously test for it expecting a fail to ensure you are not selling them. They have small amounts of opioid in them which is bascially a synthetic opiate just to fill in ur receptors so you dont get such harsh cravings. it is a opiate blocker.. it blocks all effects of opiates but also blocks the cravings by giving the body a small amount of what its craving. however... no it will not show up on standard drug test..

It is funny to see justs how much confusion there is pertaining to this question... How long does suboxone stay in our urine.
Here is the truth, and it is accurate. I speak from lots of experience, and study (attempts, failures and successes).
The most important factor, and there are many, is the half life. This has been addressed on this forum, but misinformed. The actual half life, based on an average persons metabolism, is 35 hours.
My personal metabolism is speedy, so I think I've pinpointed it down somewhere in the mid 20's. What this means is that every 25 hours after I stop taking it my levels drop by 50%. So if I take an 8 mg film today, tomorrow I would still have levels equalling 4 mg, and the following day the levels would be 2 mg, and then the next day down to 1 mg. etc etc.
So basically, it sticks with you for a while! Particullarly if your last dose was high.
And remember the average person is going to be 50% slower than that. So if it takes me 4 days to clean out an 8 mg film it would take someone else up to 6 days.

There are things you can do to speed up the process if you are in a crunch for time.
Eat healthily foods
Exercise
Limit fat intake
Drink lots of water
Steer away from taking vitamin supplements as some of them restrict your bodies natural ability to filter toxins.

It is worth noting that every situation and person are different. I know a guy who despite taking three films a day, 24 mg's, can pee clean after 3 days.

But the more time the better! There are also isolated stories about guys failing after 16 days.... But I'm skeptical that they really stopped taking the sub.

Anyway, I hope there was some useful info in there.

Missing my babies,

That's just not true. I'm not saying that on your tests didn't show up- just that they specifically tested for buprenorphine. A 10 panel test does NOT include buprenorphine. 10 panel is pretty extensive. To put that in perspective a DOT test is 5 panel. These are facts- not my opinion.

suboxone is tested at pain mgt because they make shure u do not take any the additional sub test is 1.75 and we test patients all the time even for court and an everyday user will need to wait 37 hours or more if taking more then 8 mg it may be longer

I get u.a every other day due to being a covict heroin dealer. I got out of prison 2 years ago and have taken subo every day since. Never once have I failed a drug test. So dummys stop giving false information your gonna f*** someone's life up by making them skip a drug test and get in trouble that way. A missed drug test equals a hot drug test
