Suboxone 8mg/2mg And Roxicodone 30's (Page 11)

Updated

I am currently taking Roxicodone 30's each day. I have suboxone 8mg/2mg to help get off of these. I know the suboxones are the best pill made to help with the withdrawals but I'm wondering if for the firsrt 3 to 5 days when I'm having trouble sleeping and feeling clammy, if i should take like half of a Roxicodone 30 (which i have done in the past), as it helps me to sleep and takes away the clammy feeling? Any other suggestions that you may have? Thanks to anyone answering this for me.

Maya I posted a method of getting off the subs below! If u are already on a quarter that is not very much at all! U need to start trying to take them every other day or cutting your quarter in half as well! They say there is a detox plan off of suboxone as well!!! All u need is 5! But I you are already taking a quarter all you can do is take less and less everyday ! Your so low on mg of sub you should try to cold trurkey it or do it every other day! Sub wd is horrible but try to do it in 2 weeks! Set a goal for your self an if your not strong enough I suggest a dr to help you getting off them!

HI Desperatelovingwife, I was taking 15-20 30mg oxy/day and at first sub dr. tried 8mg once/day. I was still sick. 12mg or 1and half strip once/day did the trick for me. Yes it sounds like your husband took subs too soon. You NEED TO WAIT at least 17-20 hrs. after last dose of your DOC before taking subs. Hows he doing now? I realized pretty quick that I could lower dose after first week and not notice much difference. Like 12mg to 8mg to 6mg,4,2, 1 then 1/2 then off of them.

Hi Maya, Its hard to do but cut the quarter strip in half best you can. That gives you 1mg. Take once a day for a week. You can jump off then or take every other day for another week and jump. There will be some discomfort but very doable. Some OTC aids may help for a couple days but the wds will be very minor. I,m no dr. but have come off subs before. Good Luck

I just took my lt dose of suboxone two nights ago and I'm experiencing RLS and cold sweats. I'm not sure if I'm w/d from suboxone or roxys? I was up to 3-4 roxy 30 a day for 7 mtgs and i bought 7 subs in a matter of almost 2 weeks. I started big and cut down to slivers. How long will this feeling last? Thank you for all the support. I still have cravings but I'm afraid to get addicted to the subs now.

Hi Anxious, Did you come down from the 8mg. to .5mg. gradually? If so it shouldn,t be too difficult to jump off. I jumped at 1mg. once and .5mg. another time and both times weren,t too bad. NOTHING like oxy wds. Your gonna feel blaaaa thats the only way I can discribe it once the half life of the subs starts to wear off. The subs have an incredibly long half life. I could sleep both times I came off them and that was a big concern for me because of work. Good Luck. Post how your doing.

Hi anx.....I will tell you from my expierience I was down to barely any subs like ....5 every other day then I stopped completely cold turkey I had terrible withdrawals for 1 week then my second week I was very blah! It was harder to get off subs for me then roxys, so I then decided to go back on subs week 4 because I could not adjust to normal! But everyone is diffrent my cousin got off sub very easy she had no problems except minor rls and blah for a few weeks but got back to her old self after 3 weeks I on the other hand was throwing up pissing out my ass and could not sleep which when your in wd you are just begging for 1 sub inside but you know it's for the better! As you can tell I'm back on the subs and am going to try again in jan with a diffrent approach because .5 every other day did not work for me! But best I luck and please keep us posted!

They do make a supplement that says it helps with rls I have never tried it but I have seen it at rite aid before! Rls can be awful esp at night walking can help ease the rls pain but that is usually the last thing you want to do a dr told me baths with Epsom salt help but I think the only thing you can do is wait it out unfortunately ! Going back and forth with meds oxy or subs is the worst thing you can do but it the pain is unbareable I usually take a tiny piece of sub at night and only at night every other night it has helped me before but like I said I'm back on 2 8 mg strips a day again ! Come jan when I try to get off them again I'll document my progress!

@ DesperateLovingWife ... When you are taking suboxone if your husband still has a lot of other opioids in his system it will make him very sick.it will make withdrawls really bad. most Drs want you to take the dose of suboxone all at one time in the morning. It will take some time getting use too but it does work. Just do not take any other pain meds with it..The suboxone has a blocker in it so any pain meds will not work only make it worse..

Hi Anxious, How are you doing? Sometimes a hot bath or walking helps with RLS but who wants to take a bath or go for a walk in the middle of the night. If your not moving around during the day you should try taking a walk before bed or after supper. This will help a little. Even a short walk does wonders. I know you said your getting them in your arms. Even though your useing your legs to walk your arms are moving and blood is being circulated through them more then when your just sitting or laying down I would think. You could check out Rite Aid like Subpro suggested. Hope you feel better.
