To properly take Suboxone and avoid having it throw you into withdrawals, you already have to be in them, when you take it.

Learn more Suboxone details here.

Along with the Buprenorphine, it also contains Naloxone, which is used to prevent the abuse of other narcotics, while you are under treatment with it.

Have you consulted a doctor for advice?

How bad are you withdrawal symptoms?

I would say to be on the safe side, 92hrs, or you will go into pre withdrawal, n it's so much worst than regular withdrawals. I've been on meth fir 7 years. Speed going on 18mgs- couldn't take the long lines n all the bs. I'd b there my whole morning. So I saved some of my meth bottles n bought 10mg meth pills n weend myself of like they do in detox, which I kno how they do it cuz I've been to many. After I did that I felt gd the first day but couldn't sleep Sooo took ambien or trazadone to sleep. Then a took 8 mgs sub the 3rd day off meth for 4 days n then I was fine the rest is in your head. You gta get up na fir a drive you'll see the rest is mental

I will absolutely agree with u. I just stopped the methadone clinic last dose of 90 milgs monday at 10am waited till fri...just couldn't take it anymore. So I took 4 milg was, scared that I was gonna end up in pre w/d but no its not a walk in the park but know pre WD they say it takes time for the acting bupe to build up in our bodies so I took 4 milgs every couple hrs. And today is a little better. a couple of sweats here and there and a little stomach pain but nothing as what I thought, everyday better and better..

Bs 72 hrs did not put u in withdrawal, ur body needs a day or 2 to adjust to suboxone. You won't feel high off sub's. I've done it all. I took a sub 12 hrs after opiates and i felt s***ty, but day 3 i went back to work. You have a weak mind, sorry man just telling u the truth. Subs r strong, mabey u didn't need the sub but 72 hrs no way did u go into prewithdrawal. Perks and Vic's destroy your liver, subs do not. You have to go through a little pain before they work but it has saved my life and freedom. Those who play must pay.

Re: PhD on opiates i died 6 mins god kept me here (# 6) Expand Referenced Message

This is the most idiotic and irresponsible information I have read in a long time. Everyone metabolizes opioids at different rates, so going into PWDs after 72hrs is easily plausible. Moreover, weak-mindedness has nothing to do with it. Please educate yourself before commenting in the future.
