I'm going through it, 29yrs old. Tried it one time since 2011. I'm tired and want to do it. Thanks ## It depends how much Suboxone you've been taking each day and how long you've been taking it. Can you please post back with more details? Has your doctor given you a tapering schedule? The FDA classifies this medication as an opiate that is most commonly used to treat drug addition, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. ## I just wanted to take a moment to say. I've been reading all this string of info and I keep going back to the same thought. I was prescribed Hydrocodone for Severe TMJ & TMD etc. In other words my jaw is really messed up. I won't bore you wit...

take 2 mg suboxone daily. Ran out of suboxone so took 3 5 mg percocet about 15 hours ago. Am i ok to re- induce my suboxone again? (2 mg only) ## Anytime someone starts Suboxone, they must be in full withdrawal, before taking it, or there is the risk that it may throw them into dangerous precipitated withdrawals... barring them going from Suboxone to another identical medication, such as Subutex or Butrans. The FDA classifies this medication as an opiate that is most commonly used to treat drug addiction, so it carries the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

I have been taking one 8mg suboxone a day for a month. How long do I need to wait to take a lortab? ## Hello! How are you? It usually takes about 72 hours for other opiates to become effective for you, again, The FDA warns that these medications carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I took a small piece of subutex 10 hours ago. Can I take my hydrocodone? ## Rose, It's always best to consult the PHYSCIAN that prescribed your subutex. The mixing of powerful narcotic opiates can cause many unexpected side effects when Polly use of these substances are initiated. ## I'm prescribed 8mg of buprenorphine a day how long do I have to wait in order to ta...

I took 200 mg of time released morphine at 11am yesterday morning. It's been 31 hrs. Is it safe to take a suboxone? I've been down this road before and I have never had a good experience! I hate drugs!!!!!! I have been sneezing, yawning, and jimmy legs! Please help!!! ## From what I've read on other reviews, you should probably wait at least 24 hours after your last dose of Morphine before having Suboxone. Others suggest waiting until you're well in to withdrawal, especially with Morphine. But I imagine these estimated waiting times are going to be largely dependent on several individual factors that also come into play. Everyone has different tolerance levels and different body chemistry that effects metabolism and excretion rates. However, in my personal opinion, 31+ h...

I have ten suboxones. I have been taking oxycontin for pain but want to try at home to w/d. I can't discuss this with my doctor as it will affect my insurance. This is a fact..in my case... Can someone on here tell me how to take my subs? I would appreciate any answers and no lectures. How many do I need to withdraw..Thanks so much. ## You have to be off the oxycontin long enough to start feeling the withdrawals, THEN, and only then, you take the suboxone. I was on a high dose of hydrocodone, and just 2mg calmed me down. Make what you have last. Start with 2mg, if that doesn't help, take another 2mg. Just a little - it goes a long way. ## Suboxone contains a powerful opiate Buprenoprhine, with the agonist Naloxone. So, it can also put opiate users into withdrawals if it is not u...

Dr. Verwon, how are you? I have been on suboxone for almost 8 years now. I was addicted to Oxy for almost 10 years. I went on pain management because I have a lot of medical problems that caused me severe pain. I still suffer from pain. The suboxone helps take the edge off the pain, sometimes. But, I'm also afraid if I get off the suboxone I'll be back to using pain pills. Can I stay on continue to stay on suboxone as people do with methadone maintenance? My Dr. has not said anything about tapering or taking me off. He knows my situation. What do you think? Thank You! ## Hello Cats! How are you doing? I am fabulous, just keeping busy, thanks for asking. Yes, it can actually be used for pain, too. There are many people that take it for pain, rather than addiction treatment, or fo...

I took a 1/4 of a suboxone a friend had given me around 6:00 pm today. How long do I have to wait until I can take a Percocet for pain and not get it and have it work? ## 1/4 of a suboxone isn't a very detailed description how many MG's was the strip?(i know this is an old comment but whatever) ## I know this topic is a few weeks old, but I do agree with josh (post #1) in that the answer to the original thread question would largely depend on how many milligrams of Suboxone you're taking. Based on some other cases I've seen, I'd take a shot in the dark and say it may be up to a week before it's out of your body. Although several personal factors such as age, weight, diet, etc, could also influence the excretion rate. I hope this info helps! Please post back if yo...

My job is closing and I have been on 2 & 1/2 8mg suboxone for almost 3yrs, used to be on 3 a day. Now I am also a disabled vet but the va won't give them to me. With that being said I have insurance until march and want to stock pile as many as I can. I am pretty close with my dr and am gonna ask him to at least put me back up to 3 a day so I can save some until I can figure out my insurance problems. Was wondering how many 8mg suboxone can a dr legally percribe you daily so I know what is the most I can ask him for. I am not even saying he will help me and give me mor but I got to ask cause I withdrawal is very long and horrible. I went into the va psych ward for a couple weeks and they would not give them to me and it was horrible so I am trying to prepare for the future until...

I don't know how to go about this as I am shaking and can barely focus, I need help! Please. I fear that my life is going to end from my abuse of opiates. I am currently taking 250 mgs of oxycontin per day. I have a loving fiance and a stepdaughter that I want to be here for.

This wasn't what I wanted my life to be, and I can not let it end this way..Please help me. I am not a religious man but I pray for help as I am at my wits end with this drug. ## If you are that desperate for help, then why are you worried about being specific about the thing you use for assistance?

If go to suboxone and am on legal script of xanax can I take both ## It is going to depend on what agreement your Suboxone doctor requires from you. Some of them make you sign an agreement to not take any medications from any other doctor, some restrict it to controlled substances and some aren't worried about it, at all, as long as they are legally prescribed, but it can vary from doctor to doctor. Learn more Suboxone details here. Learn more Xanax details here. Both of these medications have the potential to be habit forming, so you really do need to discuss such things with your doctors, who can help you decide what is best and safest for you. Are there any other questions or concerns? ## I take 3 8mg. Subs daily for many years now (probley 8yrs.)and I also have extreamly bad anx...

I have been addicted to lortab, norco, viocoden for 20 years I took between 14 to 3 a day. Today I am on norco 10/325 5-6-7 a day. I was given Suboxone 8mg/2mg. I would not be able to drive 200 miles during a withdrawl of 24 hrs. My friend gave the Suboxone to help me stop my addiction the the pain pill. Could some one tell me how much to start a day subliq. ## I'm sorry, but the proper dosage of Suboxone is very carefully calculated using formulas that aren't made public. It's based on the drug being abused, how long its been abused and the amount being taken. Additionally, Suboxone can't be taken until you are already in full withdrawals, because taking it too soon may cause you to go into dangerous withdrawals. Learn more Suboxone details here. You don't have any ...

Hi ive been on suboxone for 4yrs but my dr is no longer taking medicaid,and i just found out this week that i have ra,my question is since ive been on suboxone in the padt will medicaid pay for me to get back on pain meds? ## Hello, Phyllis! How are you? If you were on it for addiction treatment, you'll likely have a bigger problem getting a doctor to prescribe it. Most are very reluctant to do so and many will simply recommend that you stay on Suboxone. Has it helped with your pain, at all?

Before I fully switched to Suboxone and I ran out of my other meds, I'd be able to take a half of an 8mg Suboxone. I was told to put it in my mouth with a some water and swish it around in my mouth till it dissolved. Then to swallow, and swish even more water in my mouth and swallow again. That worked to make it take effect. Now that I'm seeing a new doctor, I was told to let it dissolve under my tongue with no water. As a result, I've had to go up in dosage to get the same therapeutic effect. Is it possible to get use to your dose SO fast that you need to be upped from 8mgs to 14mgs? Or that I'm taking them wrong? :/ I'm so confused! ## I've heard many stories of how to take Suboxone or Subutex sublingual tablets, not the film. I've been on Subutex for numbe...

I live in Kokomo, IN. I was on subs, but they require way to many na/as meetings. I have a full time job and 2 kids to look after. I heard there is a doc in Carmel that doesn't make you do these classes. I just need the medication cause I've been addicted to opiates for almost 20 years. Any help would be greatly appreciated. ## Most of the places I've tried make you find your own counselor which can be super expensive and difficult to get an appointment or else they won't prescribe you the medicine. I found a clinic opening in Carmel next month called Lucina treatment center which at least provides the counseling included in your cost so might give them a try. Can't be any worse than my current provider.

Hello. I'm trying to prove a point and figure this situation out so I need as many suggestions and help that I can possibly get with this question. If you handle quite a few Suboxone wrappers and had even handled Suboxone itself but have never taken Suboxone, is there any way that could get into your system without taking it? Thank you so much this means a lot to me. It really does. And yes I have tried to research this question and I get so many different results so I thought I would come to this wonderful MedChat and try to get a lot more information. Just trying to prove a point. I'm so desperate to figure this out. So please help me. ## Hi Annie, I'm not an expert in the forensics of touching a medication like Suboxone. However, I am under the impression that Suboxone ta...

I've been taking per 30's. (Not proud) I took 8 mg suboxone 2 days in a row last dose 31 hrs ago. Will I feel full effects off 100 mg methadone. I usually take that once a week. Don't want it to be a waste. ## Hi Jewel, Because everyone's individual wait period tends to vary based on a variety of different factors, I would encourage you to contact your prescribing doctor about this; especially since s/he should've voluntarily provided you with this information upon prescribing the methadone. Just to add though, my findings suggest that 72hrs seems to be a commonly agreed upon window of time for waiting in between taking suboxone and methadone, in order to feel its full effects. Many people in other related threads here have also reported only having to wait 48hrs. I ...

I am wondering how many days should I stop taking suboxone because I don't have enough to last till my appointment. I want to know if I stop for a few days, will I feel better when I take it? I can take at least 5 suboxone per day and still feel like I need more. I don't know why it is that way. I want to be able to take a lower dose, and I need answers. I need help with how to start taking them right - should I switch to Subutex? ## If you are in withdrawals (i.e. Watery eye(s) muscle aches, then later sweating and constant goose bumps till your skin is sore from it, and you can't tell if you're hot or cold because you're sweating and getting goose bumps aka HELL) then any amount of suboxone that stays in your mouth for at least 10 minutes will stop or at least ease...

I kiss my wife many times daily. Suddenly my dr said i had suboxone in my urine. How? By kissing? ## I showed positive for suboxone from kissing my wife. How is this possible? ## Hello, Roger! How are you? I'm very sorry about the problem that you're having. And I think that kissing someone that's taking it regular may cause someone to show positive for various medications. I was actually just reading about it a few days ago. The FDA lists this medication as being a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. It is most commonly used to treat drug addiction. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Roger, I think it might be possible, but I also think unlikely...
