How Many 8mg Suboxone Can A Dr Percribe A Patient Daily In Pa (Top voted first)
UpdatedMy job is closing and I have been on 2 & 1/2 8mg suboxone for almost 3yrs, used to be on 3 a day. Now I am also a disabled vet but the va won't give them to me. With that being said I have insurance until march and want to stock pile as many as I can. I am pretty close with my dr and am gonna ask him to at least put me back up to 3 a day so I can save some until I can figure out my insurance problems. Was wondering how many 8mg suboxone can a dr legally percribe you daily so I know what is the most I can ask him for. I am not even saying he will help me and give me mor but I got to ask cause I withdrawal is very long and horrible. I went into the va psych ward for a couple weeks and they would not give them to me and it was horrible so I am trying to prepare for the future until I can figure out how to get new insurance. Thanks.

I understand your dilemma, but I also don't have an answer to that. I am not sure if there is a limit or not, some states do have them and some don't. In some states it isn't limited by how much they can prescribe, but by your pharmacy only being able to stock so much of a supply.

The best suggestion I can make is to ask your doctor, he should know all the relevant laws, since he is authorized to treat with Suboxone.
When are you planning to lower the dosage again?
I have been on them for 3 years now and I think every where now the most they can give a day is 4 tab or strips a day but make sure you wait least 24 hrs. Till you take one after a pain pill or will put you in withdraw ASAP! Also you can ask to be put on subutex this does not have the blocker just the bup. That's what I take now for my pain 2 times a day 8 mg and I am fine and I was on 6 30s or more a day.
