Suboxone 8mg/2mg And Roxicodone 30's (Page 6)

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.

They think I'm taking 3 a day but really I only take the suboxone when I'm feeling a craving and either don't have the money or really am trying to quit that day. I'm trying to stay positive but even today didn't go so well so it's gonna be a long road. I did buy a 21 day journal that helps you make or break a habit.. but that's irrelevant.. maybe it'll help though.

thank you for replying

Can't really afford to buy em from anyone they're 25 a peice here n the cheapest treatment place is 450 a week. You know any ways around all that up front I have military insurance.

You won't die from the klonopin with the subs- but it's a benzo and benzos & subs should only be mixed under strict drs care.

Did a dr really put you on subs for a 3 perc per day habit? That's the equivalent of taking an armored tank with fully loaded automatic weapons to a fist fight. Unbelievable.

HI Pleasehelp... My question is this. What kind of a Dr will prescribe Suboxone? I am going to a Pain Mgmt Dr and they have me on 15mg oxy 4x a day but I am taking much more than that because your body builds up a tolerance and then you need more and more. Will they make you go into rehab or will a Dr just prescribe Suboxone for you? You are a true angel on here to all of us who have questions. Thank You!!

My primary Dr. prescribed the suboxine for me with no problem. If your doctor won't any nurse that is trained for addiction will. I took 3 percocets a day, they gave me 8mg of suboxine film to take. I just kept in mind that this will be another to wean off. The first day 1 took 1 8mg fil, it mad me so very dizzy, same for day two. On the third day i called my doctor's office explaing how i felt and i was told to take only half, i took a third. The 4th day i didn't take any suboxine to see how i would do, I was fine, still no craving for any percocets. I have'nt taken and suboxine or percocets and this is my 9th day clean and i feel fine, now i have to start working on getting rid of my depression, then smoking. I was told to conquer one at a time and that is what I plan to do. I just want everyone that wants to get off percocets and can't seem to go cold turkey, suboxine is the way to go, if I did it anyone can. Thank you up above and good luck to all of you!

Momma,

I'm sorry about your situation. The relapse rate for people that try to do a rapid detox with subs is VERY HIGH. Have you considered going to a sub dr and getting put on them that way. Opiates do a number in our brain and it takes time to heal. Subs allow you to function while that healing takes place. Most insurance cover at least the medication now.

Just a thought. Opiate addiction is tough. Good luck with it. You can beat it.

Im glad to read that you are off the roxys but I am afraid you are in for a rude awakening if and when you try to come off the subs. I started taking opiates in my mid twentys and was soon introduced to roxys. What started as one a day morphed into three a day and two years later I was up to ten a day just to feel normal. I quit cold turkey with the help of my best friend and my husband. Went through about two weeks of severe flu like symptoms including restless legs that prevented me from getting good sleep for a while. What followed was even harder for me, the psychological effects. I had to get used to feeling normal without opiates in my system. My normal wasnt what everyone elses normal was anymore. It was hard. Ive slipped multiple times with other opiates. Never got back up to regular use but still fight the fact that I will forever be addicted to opiates nomatter how long I am off them. Several months ago I slipped up and started doing K8 once a day for a week then switched over to Dilaudid 2s that i would take 4 at a time. The following week when those werent available and I refused to do roxys because of how bad I remembered it was. I then switched to crunching up about 3 Loratab tens a day just to feel "normal" I was afraid that my problem was raising its ugly head again so I had a friend with subs and I bought about forty 8s to get myself off the cycle again. What I found is that the subs were as bad as the roxys. I am only taking an 8 a day but I know that Im about to go through some nasty withdrawals from them. It does help in a way because I turn down Ks because I know the subs are such opiate receptor "pigs" that it is a waste the throw a K on it but that fact still remains that once the subs are out of my system by body is going to want opiates and I will once again have to go through the flu like symptoms and the emotional crap that will follow. I am certainly not a doctor but I will advise you as one addict to another that the only way to get better is to eliminate all your friends and connections to opiates, set your mind to go through the withdrawals. Not just the physical but the mental ones. It will get better over time, each day without an opiate will make u stronger. Always keep in mind though that you will forever be predisposed to be addicted to opiates and take one day at a time. Be proud of yourself for each day,, month and year that passes. Good luck with you journey. Look to family, friends, and in my case god.

I am sorry but I do not read that ALL people talk about is getting high. Most are asking for advise, opinions and help..maybe just to feel that they are not alone and need someone to listen. I am sure it is not a place for people to come and feel ...what if they post something that one may not agree with ...like yourself, will they be attacked or have a negative comment posted that is insulting in tone? I am guessing that you need help as well, you were troubled enough to be here, and even more troubled to post in a negative manner, I hope that that gave you the positve result and feeling that you were looking for when you wrote it.

I know everyone posts how bad suboxone is to get off of, and it is when usng it ong term , butshort term during the first week is your BFF! After taking 30 mg roxi 4-6 X daily I was able to take 8 mg Sub and break it into 1 mg pieces. I would take 1-2 mg th first morning , ten hours after taking my last pill. The next three days were still ugly with the night sweats, however the as soon as I took the suboxone, it subsided. You do have to be very careful not to replace the subs for whaever you are stopping, this is easy to do as it makes you feel so much better. I have detoxed 100% cold turkey from 7 a day ( all of these are Dr prescribed I have a brain disease) and htat was the worst experience, however am glad I endured it and know what to expect. There are so many people on here that do not realize how much you have helped. I myself read them and feel like you wish you could pick up the phone and see how hey are doing, talk about your own progress adn just talk. We all have so much in common after all don't we? Well some of us anyway are positive. I did well, an dhad surgery on my hand on Wednesday with the Dr giving little to no pain meds at all.

Thank you fr your response. I am aware of the Suboxone withdrawals. I completely agree with you they are worse than the opiate by far. If you can just take them for the first week then I suggest that. Yes separating from all contacts is a key component. I have chosen to take myself off of them , and deal witha brain disease without opiates. The Dr's love to use use it as a cure.

Its is not advised nor is it safe to take sub and ANY benzos together. U can and many people love the high u recieve from the combination. However, it is VERY dangerous as you may stop breathing from the coctail. My old doctor used to prescribe both together but 99% of doctors will not do so anymore because of the danger. Be VERY careful if you are going to do so. The "coma" state is probably a good sign not to do so. Keep in mind most accidental overdoses don't occur because of taking too much of a particular drug. It is almost always because of a combination of 2 or more drugs. I have mixed many drugs in the past but it is ill advised to do so. Oxycodone, hydrocodone, suboxone, morphine, fentanyl or any pain killers are not to be mixed with xanax, klonopin, valium or any benzodiazapine. Just some advice that should be greatly considered.
