I ran out of subutex and took Methadone for a week. Approximately 80 mg a day, and the last few days 40 mgs. I have Subutex but I'm afraid to take it bc of the precipitated withdrawal. It's been almost 72 hrs. I'm feeling bad but also have a stomach virus so I don't know if it's withdrawal or if I'm still waiting for this stomach bug to move out. I've been sneezing like crazy, shaky and sweaty. I need to take my Subutex badly. I have 3 kids and I just waht to feel normal. ## Well no one replied but after waiting 72 hrs, I took 2 mgs of subutex. I still felt that icky withdrawal feeling. I waited and took 4 mg the next day, and was still a lil icky. After the 3rd day I started feeling a LITTLE better. After the 5th day I was back to normal. Thank God! I'll...

My gf just started on subs and I swear shes high, don,t care but just noticable. Is this even possible? Been on them my self and experianced nothing like what Im talking about. ## Yes, it is possible. Suboxone does contain a very potent narcotic, Buprenorphine, so it can have that affect on some people. Even though it didn't have that effect on you, she may experience it, because medications can affect everyone differently. Learn more Suboxone details here. Is there anything else I can help with?

Desoxyn seems to be given to some. I for one have never had it or anything close, legal or not. If you did use it, was it effective or was it too much to tolerate. What was your experience? ## I haven't taken it yet. Pharmacies like CVS and Ralphs don't have it and other pharmacies I've called need the actual written prescription to tell me if they can even fill it. So I have to get the physical prescription from my Dr. and drive around and ask. I'll let you know asap. ## Desoxyn is new news to me as well. One thing I don't understand though is why/how doctors are able to justify writing prescriptions for what is widely recognized to be an illicit/illegal substance (more commonly known as Methamphetamine). For the FDA to approve Methamphetamine (Desoxyn) seems to me ...

I am a 30 yo female and I've been in suboxone treatment for about two years. I have stayed at two mg strips twice a day for most of that time.. a few months ago I started overtaking my suboxone, usually with a half a strip up to a whole extra a day..for whatever reason it seems to help my anxiety although I know it's all mental it's just things have gotten so stressful lately. I had been seeing one doctor and after a few failed attempts to make an appointment and him closing early or not being there I started seeing another doctor. The last two times I've been to the doctor I've alternated between the two.. I tried to fill my prescription today and the pharmacy said that it showed I was seeing multiple provider's.. when I called to speak with the doctor they knew...

It's been a month without suboxone and I tapered down very low so it wasn't too bad but depression is horrible. Will it stop? I have one thought, doom! I'm scared. I have a traumatic brain injury due to a car accident where I fractured my skull, and broke my neck. I was on suboxone for 3 years at the time and 3 years since. Highest dosage was 4 mg. I'm on cymbalta, max dose. Seroquol. Now lotuda. I almost want to go back on sub. And just live on 1 mg. never had depression like this. Just feel like I'm not gonna kick the depression. If I didn't have 3 young sons I would contemplate taking my own life but would never do that to my wife or kids. Just wondering if anyone has been in hell like this? ## Dear John, I'm so sorry 2 hear about yor situation. But, wanti...

I was on suboxone 2 mg 2x a day for 4 years. I stopped cold turkey due to a request from and death of my father. 16 days until I could sleep more than 2 hours.. Days 1-5 weren't as bad as 6-14. After that it was restless legs.. Fatigue, depression, anxiety, depression again... Not until I began. Sleeping 6+ hours did most of it go away.. Still have depression and restless legs not almost 2 months later and everyday around my normal second dose time I notice I get very tired. F*** suboxone. Do not use it for more than a detox. Save yourself. If I could go back and withdraw off dope or methadone, I'd have stuck with them and not been a p**** and use sub's as a crutch. The "substance abuse" doctors give 0 s***s about you. Its all a business. $$$$ ## Unfortunately, after...

Looking for Suboxone Pills or Film for my 25 year old daughter ## I am sorry, this site does not manufacture, prescribe nor sell any products. this is an information only website. In addition, Suboxone contains the active ingredients Buprenorphine and Naloxone, the first is a powerful narcotic and the second neutralizes other opiates. That means that this drug is very dangerous if it is not used properly, because it can put someone into severe withdrawals that can endanger their life. It should only be used under a doctors supervision, who can provide the proper instructions on when to start the medication and calibrate the proper dosage. Then, the amount has to be very slowly tapered to allow the person to ever become drug free. Are there any comments or questions?

I've been using percocets for 2 years. for my fibromyalgia pain. I was taking 30 milligrams a day. now I am detoxing on suboxone for 2 days. my doctor currently gave me Savell. can I do both together or should I wait after I detox.. ## Hello, Tina! How are you? Are you just working with your regular doctor on this? The Suboxone likely isn't appropriate for someone taking just 30mgs a day, it's meant to be used to treat hardcore drugs addicts, not someone that's just been dependent on something for pain. And are you referring to Savella? In respect to it, what instructions did your doctor provide you for when to start it?

I am on pain management and take oxycodone 10s and 30s i took a suboxone 8 for 2 days and ran out how long am i gonna start to crash before i can take some methadone pills friend gave to me to hold me till my next script refill ...out of meds is my problem! had a ruff month and took more then i had to! ## Hello, CtJake! How are you doing? All of the medications you've mentioned carry the risk of being habit forming, since they are all narcotics, so you really need to be careful about taking more than prescribed and then adding in others that haven't been prescribed for you. I also do not have an answer for you on when you can take the Methadone, generally the doctors that prescribe Suboxone have been specially trained in its use and would advise someone on that. The calculations...

Im looking for a suboxone n8 clinic in the Las Vegas area? ## Hi, Search suboxone doctors in las vegas. Some of those sites have a place to enter your zipcode. ## There is a search engine on the site Suboxone.com click here. This is a narcotic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Can you let us know if you have any luck? Thanks!

My insurance is no longer covering my suboxone or Zubsolv. I started taking it to get off of all opiates and narcotics, but it helps with chronic back pain from a botched back surgery. I can't afford the hundred dollar prices. Does anyone know of something similar that doesn't cost so much? I only have til July 1st to find something. Please help, thank you. ## Hi Elizabeth! I know they make a generic form of the suboxone pill form. That would b the cheapest. They haven't come out with generic films yet. Also, u can try talking 2 your Dr about any discount programs. Sometimes, they even have discount coupons. 2 help out. They have them here in RI. R u eligible 4 any kind of health insurance? Or do u already have insurance? ## I have ins. they just suck.

I started today with my first dose of contrave, 1 pill in the AM. I also take suboxone 8mg (4 1 time a day). My doctor stated that the interaction of the two should be minimal..yeah NO! I got diarrhea, hot flashes, chills, body aches, and pretty much every withdrawal symptom known to man. I now dont want to take the contrave because I am not ready to stop the suboxone. Should I just stop the contrave and continue the sub? Or how should I go about this? ## Hello, Kiat! How are you? I'm very sorry about what happened. Yes, the Naltrexone in Contrave can cause you to go into withdrawal from any opiate, as listed by the FDA, and you were doubling it up with the Naloxone in the Suboxone that does that same thing. As to how to continue, it usually takes about 3 days, before you can safely...

I've been on suboxone for about a month. Before I decided to face my addiction of over 10 years of opiate pain killers, I was on 80MG of Ms contin 3Xs daily, 40 of oxy as needed every 4 hours, Norco 10s 1 or 2 pills as needed every 4 hours, Xanax, Lyrica and a few others. First my doctor started me on 1\2 tablet 2Xs a day. It wasn't enough so he went up to 3xs a day. It still wasn't helping. He wouldn't raise it so I switched doctors. Now I'm currently at two 8mg tabs a day. Still it doesn't seem to be enough. What can I do? What is the average daily dose of suboxone? ## Hello, Jaycee! How are you? I'm very sorry about the problem you're having. The maximum dosage is usually 24/6mgs a day, doses higher than that haven't been shown to have any clinical...

Does suboxone help with severe pain? I have had several back surgerys and have severe hip pain. I have been on dr perscribed oxycontin and loritab. Seeing a new dr who only perscribes suboxone. Will I continue to have pain being on this medication? ## Suboxone is mainly prescribed for opiate withdrawall in the states. I,ve read that other countries use it for pain relief. I,ve been prescribed it for opiate withdrawall but have pretty severe leg pain. It does help me with this pain. Some people say it does nothing for pain, I disagree. May I ask why your going to a suboxone Dr?

I read almost all your posts. I think I'm way off here probably just a little off in the head. I've been on vicoden and oxy's since 2003. 98% of the time I was buying the crap off the street. The other 2% I would intentionally hurt myself to get a script, pathetic I know. I took a leap of faith and stopped. Went to a Methadone clinic and regretted it ever since. Missed important life moments and lost all my friends. I was on that crap for 4 years and stopped after weening down to nothing. I was clean for over 6 months before cravings got the better of me and I started stealing family members suboxones strips. Now that member is stopping, I'm going nuts. Depressed and constantly thinking suicidal thoughts. I'm 26years old and I'm getting to thinking I need suboxon...

What do i do to.get suboxen from.dr.curremtly taking narcos,i heard suboxen are better as far as pain.that you dont have.to take as many ## Hello, Sherry! How are you? Suboxone is actually a very weak opiate and doesn't adequately relieve pain for many people. Many have reported going on it and finding that they were in miserable pain, after switching. The FDA classifies it as an opiate that is most commonly used to treat drug addiction, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

They aren't working and I'm still craving pain pills. I wanted suboxone or subutex and my insurance won't pay for it, but my doctor can get my insurance to go through for suboxone or subutex. I've done paid $250 & he told me it's too much to do that as it would take him 2 hours on the phone to get one of them to go through & when I went in for my 2nd appt. 2 of my friends were there & to my surprise one got suboxone & the other got subutex. I was so pissed cause I keep paying all this $ for something that isn't helping me. I live in Cumberland, MD if anyone knows of any other places I could go to get the help I need. Please, I would be very grateful. Thanks. ## Suboxone and Zubsolv both contain the same active ingredients, Buprenorphine and Naloxo...

Is everyone here perscribed Suboxone for drug dependency, addiction or abuse? is anyone here perscribed Suboxone for pain only? I asked this because I am on Suboxone and my pain Dr put me on suboxone.. For 8 years i was taking 80mg oxycontin x2 daily and 4 10mg perc x4 daily and it was not handling my pain very well.. after being put on suboxone i am doing much better, I only need 12 mg a day to keep my pain at a tolerable level.. i don't understand why it isn't being perscribed more for pain... My friends are telling me that eventually my dose will be cut and I will be taken off the drug and I wont be given anything else afterwords.. There telling me everyone eventually gets cut off because thats what it for... Thats makes no sence to me I am not on it for ddiction so I see no ...

I was addicted to oxy for 6 years. I've been taking subutex 8mg tabs for about 3 years now. I am currently prescribed 3-4 tablets per day (up to 32 mg/day). I have done countless hours of research online about subutex and drowsiness (really bad drowsiness), and have found nothing. I'm wondering if anyone who is prescribed as much as myself has some sort of routine or advice to stay feeling good but without all the drowsiness. I usually take 1/2 pill six different times throughout the day (as needed)...I'm scared as to how my body might react/overdose if I take 2,3,4 pills all at once, so I spread them out. Another question is...am I currently taking too much? Because sometimes I feel as though I could manage the whole day with only taking 1/2 pill and stockpiling the rest FO...
