Three days or prepare for hell lol. That's some bad information right there. If you don't know the answer stop giving people bad information please. When your withdrawal really hits and your feeling bad. That's the time to take suboxone.

So as a mother myself I've been down that road and not saying what I have done in the past will work for you but I myself have done 5-10 30mg oxycodone in a day or for days/years at a time n did the same thing and got Suboxone on the street for a period of time. Now I used to do the 5-10 oxys, sometimes doing my last one at 1am and wake up at 1030am n take a piece of sub. I found that taking a quarter of it in the morning and a quarter of it(8mgsub) at night helped me wonders n I never went into rapid withdrawal. Now I only take an 8th of one so 1mg/day and I'm good! So best of luck! If you have any ?s or need someone to talk too u can ask!

Absolutely agree, the famous fear of withdrawal hell is bs, I switch between oxys and subs all the time with no withdrawals.

Sooooo super agree...no wd caused by taking subs w opiates...feel bad for people who wait believing it will cause wd...if u take sub after ops & feel withdrawaly its only because u didnt take enough sub...ive taken both at same time essentially after surgery & just discussed this w my dr who is licensed as a sub precriber & pm dr. He was telling me he had to reassure a sub patient who had surgery & needed op for pain relief but she had precip wd fears & had to explain to her its bs & is abt keeping addicted patients on track of subox only etc....& i also know this to be true from personal experience...no need to wait people ...if u have subs take them when u need them!

I have talked on this subject before everyone is different when it comes down to medicine IV heard people say they went into withdrawals when your taking oxycodone or any opiates at all suboxone has naloxone in it an it's an opiate an naloxone is a blocker that stops you from feeling the opiates IV taken both before an nothing happened others said it gave them a bad headache but suboxone is mainly used by people wanting to get off opiates but all I found out it's just wasting the oxycodone pill when taking suboxone or vice versa each medicine is for certain problems hope this helps have a good day thanks Ken

You know for some reason this message stuck out to me, I too carry the guilt of addiction and have kids and all! I've quit before and I am in the struggle of quitting again! Who would turn back to this life after given a second chance to be normal??? Anyone, and you could be sitting here writing the very same message to someone else years from now! Don't be like me, get clean, if this is your first time using subs, trust me it is a great tool to get off of pain killers without much suffering is any at all if you use it right! Go for it, take only what is necessary if the subs to take the edge off, stay away from getting a high off of subs, if you do you're taking too much, and immediately start cutting your dose asap! After about two weeks or less you should be in the clear. This is the most important part, exercise, you have to teach your brain to create more endorphins on its own, exercise does this, and it will keep the anxiety and stress down and make you feel good for a change naturally! Good luck, hope this helps. And the most important thing of all is to pray! God bless!!!

You are lucky you are ALIVE!!! i have been an addict for 15 years and have been on opiates more than i have not, throughout my life. I have first tried one 8mg suboxone thru a clinic {I was on about twelve vicodin, norco or 5mg ms contin} since I first started taking sub. It was too much for me, so my dr then said to take only half...due to me being small this worked just fine. Next on my list was vivitrol, I would ONLY recommend this once a month inj. ONLY if you have not had taken ANY OPIATE OF ANY MG 48 hours before taking the shot, believe me i know. I took an 80mg oxy (for my last hoorah) mainly bc I did not believe this would interfere with this inj. I WAS OH SO WRONG, got the shot about two hours after hoorah/splurge and I went into SEVERE, HORRIFIC dt's!!!! As far sub goes do not TAKE ANYTHING (opiate) until you have an achy body and chills. This will VARY from person to person, so DO NOT take any advice about how many hours...this will depend on your weight, height, and how much opiates you are taking and how long you've been taking it. I am going back on a suboxone program even though it is ungodly expensive. I have to pay 280 dollars to start and 90 dollars every appointment thereafter. That is with medicaid. This alone has made me want to change my mind. When I was on it years ago it was simply 6 bucks a pill and a small copayment for the dr appt. I am absolutely flabberrgasted at how much the cost has risen. I live in Michigan. If you know of any cheaper place to go in northern Michigan, please lmk. If there is anything I can answer or may help you with, just ask.

Yes. Absolutely. I don't know why you waited 20 hours. You would have been fine at 3 hours. It is at least for me.

I'll say this tho about this topic...

So I stopped taking suboxone all together having found some T3s (codeine 30mg/500mg Tylenol) 6 pills to be exact....

I only weigh 133lbs, 25yrs old,guy, took suboxone (8mg pill form) 2mg maybe twice a day everyday for close to a year.

Quick overview: 6 T3s = 3,000mg of Tylenol (horrible effects on liver) & 180mg of Codeine (the point)

And being off suboxone for LEGIT 70 hours, not taking a sliver of sub at all period, ONLY thing it did was take away the withdrawal sickness from Subs a little for a bit....

Moral of the story is.....variables differ from each persons circumstances, your amount of fat on body, your suboxone daily use & amounts of use, age, & exercise -key things that will matter on how soon after stopping an opiate. I was extremely pissed off after a lot of research failed me.

Don't be dumb like me and waste a good pill on naloxone effects, even at 70 hours......do your homework!!!

I totally agree that 12-16 hrs after taking your last dose of Roxy is sufficient to switch over back to Suboxone. ..You don't need to be in full withdrawls before taking Sub...I will take roxy for 3 days in a row...Let's says I stop taking Rox at 11 pm on a Sunday night and the very next day Monday at 2 pm I'm fine and the Sub makes me feel really good

6-8 hours is always the case with me. I'm prescribed 6 - 20mg Oxy IR daily and if my script runs short before refill time I wait about 6 hrs after my last dose. Never once dealt with precipitated withdrawals. Never. Besides, people are telling you to wait until your fully into withdrawals anyway, so I say chance it, nothing worse can happen to you and you'll probably avoid the withdraws anyway like I have the last 18 yrs.

If this is too personal its ok, but I was wondering if you had to have a kidney transplant because of the opiate use??

I took 4mg sub today at 1:00pm. Blew 90mg of oxycodone at midnight (11 hours after taking 4mg suboxone) and I felt the rush almost immediately. The high set in about 45 minutes later. At 2:00am a little nod started to kick in. It's now 3:15am and I'm just starting to come down off the high. Solid 3 hour high with the rush, euphoria, high, etc.

Absolutely I agree I take Percocet and then take suboxone like 3 to 4 hours later and I'm fine the only time I've ever gone into precipitated withdrawal as if I totally stopped taking my Suboxone of which I'm on 4to 8 milligrams a day for three days in a row then I tried to take 4 milligrams of Suboxone that night and went into precipitated withdrawal but if you only take one Percocet 10 you are safe to take your suboxin immediately

Is suboxone bad for kidney transplant patients? That is just my question. My boyfriend is a transplant patient and I'm scared for him to take suboxone. We are currently in our process of coming off opiates.
