How Long Can I Take An Opiate After Suboxone

Updated

I took a small amount of a 2 mg suboxone strip about an hour ago. I didn't want to take it, but my friend is one of those pushy types who insisted. It was roughly between 1-2 milligrams... I went in my bedroom and spit into a cup for a few minutes without him knowing. If i take a little Roxy for my back problems in an hour or so, will I feel it? Thanks

Hello, Marcus! How are you?

Giving into peer pressure can be very dangerous. Really, you've no way of knowing if what they're giving you is actually what they claim it is, they could be giving you something very dangerous.

Suboxone is also listed by the FDA as containing Buprenorphine and Naloxone, so it is very potent and most commonly used to treat drug addiction. This is 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 could be dangerous, if you aren't opiate tolerant or would be allergic to some ingredient in it. Peer pressure is not worth risking your life. Perhaps, this person isn't really as good of a friend as you think and maybe you should avoid them in the future.

That said, no, the Naloxone neutralizes other opiates, so they will have no effect if taken so soon as ingesting it.

Is there anything else I can help with?

I took 2mg (a quarter of a suboxone) about 13 hours ago.. I only took it that one time so I wouldn't get sick, if I took my oxys now would I feel them? I haven't used suboxone before so it didn't have a chance to build up in my system but I don't want to waste my oxy's, is it too soon? I was told because i only used suboxone that one time I could be ok.. what do yo think?

Hello Verwon.

I really liked your reply to Marcus. I'm not a member here and Marcus's question was the first I've read on this site. Not real sure exactly how this site works yes - whether I can send a message directly or not - or whether you'd accept that. I have some questions I'd like your input on if you're up for that. I suppose the forum will let me know if you reply to this. Thanks in advance for your reply.

Can someone please help me out on this question??? Been on SUBUTEX for 8 years not Suboxone - haven't had any need to take pain meds till now - I am in AGONY and was just prescribed a few Tylenol 3 with Codeine - I am NOT looking to feel high - just out of this GNAWING PAIN! AND NOT go into severe withdrawal in the morning when I take my small dose of Sub. I cut an 8 mg tablet into 3 pcs and take one pc daily so I'd say approx. 2.5mg of SUBUTEX a day. AM I SAFE TO TAKE THE OPIATE MEDS? Thanks all!

SOME OF THESE COMMENTS SUCH AS SUBUTEX LAST WAY LONGER THEN SUBOXONE IS JUST MIND BLOWING TO ME..REALLY MIND BLOWN AT THE PURE IGNORANCE OF PEOPLE..ANOTHER THING IS THAT YOU CAN'T FEEL A PAIN PILL AFTER TAKING SUBOXONE..YOU DO NOT FEEL IT THAT NIGHT. ..NOR THE NEXT..OR THE ONE AFTER THAT..I DONT CARE WHAT DOSE YOU TOOK..AND SUBUTEX IS SIMILIAR TO SUBOXONE BUT NOT NEARLY AS POTENT...NOW IF U TAKE A SUBOXONE IT HAS A HELL OF AN AFTER LIFE..IF U TAKE 8mg TODAY TOMORROW U WILL HAVE 4 mg IN UR SYSTEM...THE FOLLOWING DAY 2..THEN 1..U GET MY POINT? SO TAKING AN 8mg SUB U WILL FEEL A PAIN PILL IN ABT 6 DAYS..U WILL FEEL ABT A QUARTER OF THE HIGH IN ABT 3 DAYS...I DONT CARE WHAT U WEIGH. BEEN THERE AND DONE THAT SO IM NOT JUDGING BUT FOR REAL STOP GETTING ON HERE HIGH TELLING PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT TO HEAR OR WHAT U WISH TO BE TRUE...EITHER GET SOME HELP FOR THE ROOT OF THE REAL ISSUE THAT HAS CAUSED YOU TO BEGIN USING OR STICK TO ONE DRUG OR THE OTHER AND STOP FRYING YOUR DAMN BRAINS..WHEN A PERSON HAS ENOUGH SOBRIETY UNDER THEIR BELT THEY WILL READ THIS MESSAGE WITHOUT GETTING OFFENDED..IF IT BOTHERS YOU THEN YOU SHOULD PROBABLY CAREFULLY EVALUATE YOUR LIFE THAT'S FALLEN APART AROUND YOU AND SEEK HELP..U HAD BIG ENOUGH BALLS TO CARRY DRUGS ACROSS TOWN AT 4am THEN U HAVE ENOUGH TO SEEK HELP..STOP WITH THE EXCUSES ABT NOT HAVING THE MONEY OR INSURANCE BCUZ GOD IS FREE AND A GUARANTEE TO MAKE YOU RIGHT..HE IS THEE DOCTOR OF ALL DOCTORS..NO JOB TOO BIG..SO SUCK IT UP SOLDIERS AND MAKE IT HAPPEN!
