How To Take Suboxone At Home (Page 3) (Top voted first)

Updated

I have ten suboxones. I have been taking oxycontin for pain but want to try at home to w/d. I can't discuss this with my doctor as it will affect my insurance. This is a fact..in my case... Can someone on here tell me how to take my subs? I would appreciate any answers and no lectures. How many do I need to withdraw..Thanks so much.

I have been taking 80 mg of methadone everyday for about 2weeks I have a huge problem with opiates I do anything I can get my hands on when I can't get H , can I switch from methadones to suboxanne instantly or would I have to w/d from methadone first? The methadones have strong after life so would I have to wait longer than 24 hrs to take suboxane? If I can do the transaction?

Methadone stay's in your system well for working effects for 24 to 36 hours, so i would wait until i felt that i needed to take another Methadone and then start on the SUBS. I did do this 1 time and that's how i done it, i didn't have any w/d from either when i swapped but you need to start out on the 2mg for sub regardless of how much Methadones you are takeing when you take the first 2mg wait 30 minutes to an hour and see how you are feeling if you feel you need to take another one then take another 2mg. My doctor increased in 2mg sections also if you find yourself w/d later in the day after you take the subs then that usually means you dont have enough sub in your system and you will need to increase the dosage. After 2 weeks my doctor had to increase my dosage because i didn't have enough in my system. question do you have a doctor that can make the swap for you?

you will need to w/d atleast 2 to 3 days before taking any medication to help you.

Been doing norco pain pills since I was 14yrs old and now am 21 wow 7yrs and ranging from 30mgs to 160mgs over time and sometimes over the course of a day........yeah not proud to say that. started out getting my wisdom teeth pulled out and got the percs. Needless to say I enjoyed then then found out parents had them for pain. So wide eyed and and deep pockets I helped myself. That went on for 3 years of me stealing and yes I feel like an ASS!!!!!!! Infact it got so bad I had 60 pills at one point finished then in 32hrs and in that time I would throw up and ruin my buzz and keep on doing then cause I had way to much in my system that my body threw it self up 3 times and it killed my buzz but I kept chasing that high. But like every crappy son I got (got my ass handed to me) caught. Then went without pills for 5 days of hell so I got a job to support my habit all my money went to pills. And sometimes I just can't help my greedy, selfish self and kept stealing pills. oh and yes keep in mind I snort them. And also do pills for everything like work, basketball, sex etc you name it. In fact if there is a positive of norcos it numbs everything so much I became a better lover meaning I use to beable to go for 4 + HRS!!!!!! NOT KIDDING then no pills let's just say under 3 mins embarrassing :(( sorry sidetrackig but anyways I bought some suboxone today and did 1/4 of it under the tounge when I was going through my W/D'S and I wouldn't be able to do it without it. Yes I know its only been one day but you gotta stay positive and not get sour haha "don't get mad get glad" lol. And just keep telling your self this sh***y felling will pass. I'm getting a lot of support from people I've hurt so when its all said and done I gotta do something for each person and I don't mind cause that money ill spend on then could've gone to more pills aka norcos. Just wondering if I go to my doctor and tell him my story will he throw me out or will he help. How should I approach him. Well if anybody decides to read it I hope my story helps you. And in the end you'll do the right thing. GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE IF I CAN STOP YOU CAN DO IT. I know that last line was really corney. :p

It is in your medical records forever. I pay for medical insurence out of pocket, as my hubby is a small business owner. Taking 3 roxies a day and stated sub yesterday. Took 1/3 twice of 8/2mg strip yesterday and feel great.Took another third this morning and it's doing the trick. Able to buy a few strips. Very hopeful as I want my life back for my hubby and kid.

YES!!! You do have to wait 12 hours or youcould be really sick! What I do is take a pain pill (whatever your flavor) at around 7pm and then go to sleep. When I wake up inthe am around 7am it has been 12 hours and I can start the Sub. Its the easiestand bestway to do it.

Me and my girl are trying to get off of oxy's. I have 4 1/2 subs and told that would be plenty since we do 40-80 Mgs daily.....is this true and is 16 hrs long enough to wait before first 2mg dose of sub? We are scared to reverse the effects and be even worse off. Our lives are wrecked And need help but have no insurance and can't afford a consult w a doc. Can someone please help us!?!?!?!?

I'm up to about 10 10/325s a day, maybe more if I have them on hand. I hate it! I want to use just one sub to ween myself off. How should I do this?

Thank you for your responce i believe the same thing the people who use sub to just be able to stay on all the other stuff should not be given advice to new patients who really want to turn their life around and get off the (oxys,roxys,and etc...But given them directions to continue using their drug of choice is ur choice of living an active addicted life.their are real people dying everyday from these opiates , Dont ruin someones real chance of soberity by giving recipes for taking and mixing medications ,its ok to give ur opinion but u should never play Russian Roulette with someelses life.

You must wait until you are having w/d symptoms. Do NOT make the mistake of taking subs before then. I made that mistake "thinking" I was not feeling well. That was a nightmare! If one waits until w/d, the medicine will work very well. Tapper of the subs over 5 to 7 days. That means starting with 8 mg for two days, 4 mg for a day or two, then down to 2mg for a day, 1 mg for a day or two. Then stop. Wait for a day or so then take another 1 mg. You should be OK. Your always going to have some discomfort, but not too bad. Good luck!

I am on suboxone, have been for 5 months and so want off, I take a quarter of one a day, my doctor had me on methadone, and kept increasing it, I am now hooked on subs, I am currently in an anatomy class and I think there has to be a way, exersize I think is a big thing and also try and get some sammy at the health food store, its strong mood enhancer but its all natural, If I find answer I will put on here

My husband got him self addicted to oxy's and i am trying to find subs currently and plan ahead on how to start and finish them. I have read all the forums above and appreciate all the input. I see how to start but how do i start to lower the dose of subs once i ease the pain in the beginning..
i understand that i need to wait 12 hours for the symptoms to begin.. then give him 1/4 pill wait 30 mins if he doesnt feel better give him another 1/4 pill and then once i get him to an acceptable amount... when day two starts how do i go lower. instead of a 1/4 pill 4 times a day... then what?
