Suboxone And Valium (Page 4) (Top voted first)

I have been on valium for approximately 12 years for severe anxiety and because of a severe back problems i was also put on percocet for years. Someone told me about suboxone. They said suboxone will help with the pain. So i went to a sub doc and told him i was on valium. He did not give me a U/A till months later. Doc said you are on a benzo. l said is that the valiums? He said yes. I said i told you i was on valium. He said you have to go off them. I was told if i go off my valiums i could have a seizure. I have been off the valium for a week. I am shaking and can't sleep. I feel sick. I was doing great with suboxone and valium. Now i am just sick. Please, someone help me.

The naloxone creates a ceiling effect to prevent respiratory failure due to the suppression effect of narcotics and opiods, so it's very difficult to overdose on Subaxone unless abused which isn't related to those responsibly treating their chronic pain issues.

I get the concern by physicians about mixing the diazepam with the sub because of the depressive reaction in the body, but also if they are regulated and monitored by pain management or a physician that works with the patient like I have going on, there are no problems with death due to respiratory failure.

When another pain management clinic had me dosed up on morphine and dilaudid there were times I was afraid to sleep because of fear I wouldn't wake up the next day. I took myself off all that crap, found a great family physician who listened and worked with me, put me on Suboxone strips, allowed me to stay on a small dose of valium for sleep and my body healed enough that a maintenance dose gives me dignity and quality of life. One things I do appreciate with my new doctor is that he requires the label to state that the subaxone is treating chronic pain so there is no stigma of drug abuse connected to it

Don't just stop Valium you are in danger of a seizure you have to reduce slowly.

Actually Suboxone is a pain killer and is available in patches which are placed on the affected area.

Valium and suboxone is just quick fixes, or short term satisfaction and long term destruction
. If you want to get better follow the Dr. orders if you like your life being addicted to valium than that is a decision you have to make. good luck

Valium is very addictive and it has been said if you take them long enough you will go out the back door with them. Saying, I believe, that your body builds up a tolerance to them and they don't do the job anymore.

I have no idea how to get off from Valium. sounds like your Dr. says cold turkey.

suboxone and Valium is just a quick fix. short term satisfaction and long term destruction. To go further with your life, you have to look for long term help. ???
good luck/

Get some Valerian-based verbal tranquilizer, the essential Valerian herbal oil, and you can also use Valerian herbal tablet sleep aids, as Valium is based on the herb Valerian.The herb is not addictive.

You can withdraw from the artificial Valium molecule using that, but you must also use a Valerian essential oil rubbed in your skin, and as essential oils evaporate and don't get properly absorbed, you must use a base oil in addition to that, anything will do, like rub some olive oil on your brow, and then massage in a few drops of Valerian essential oil into that, it does not smell very pleasant, but it will take away the worst of the agony. My massage therapy instructor who I studied use of essential oils under taught me that years ago, and said that using essential Valerian oil alone, she had successfully helped many people to withdraw from Valium.
