I was prescribed zubsolv for pain and found that one if the ingredients is making me overly nauseated and have horrible headaches. I was informed Subutex doesn't have that particular ingredient.

Looking for a new doctor to prescribe methadone for chronic pain. Due to new law in union city, tn have to find a doctor in western ky, for back and neck problems. Been on prescribed methadone for 12 or so years. Please in need of a doctor who can help.

What is this pill used for and how many times a day should I take them? Also how many milligrams are they? Will they help me to stop the urge to take opiates? If so how many days will it take to help me not feel sickness without taking opiates? Also can i take them with another pill that's round and blue with the numbers 2531 on one side and on the opposite side has a curved like v symbol? I would also like to know the name of that pill along with how it should be taken and what it's USUALLY used for along with the milligrams of it. If I take these two pills will it help me to detox off of opiates? ## Hello, Kk! How are you? Did you mean the tablet with the marking ASC 116?

Yes I know you need to be in "withdrawal" before you start. I have been taking 30 to 50mg of hydrocodone for over a year now almost daily. All started when I tore muscles in my shoulders and neck. I know the opioids need to be out of your system. I made the mystake of taking a sub not even a day after taking hydrocodone and was sick with major withdrawals. I was throwing up and felt like I was going to die. Wanted to sleep on the bathroom floor. I don't want that to happen again but I don't want to be full blown withdrawing before I take it. I'm already experiencing slight withdrawal symptoms. Should I wait longer? Or can I take it now? ## I am new to this thread. I really want to get off of opioids. If anyone here knows please let me know. ## No, you need to be in f...

For 3 years i have been on methadone, currently on 25mg. I tried to come off myself and for the first time in my life i stupidly took a delibrite overdose 6 days ago of 700mg of methadone. I ended up in hospital and they saved me with naloxone. Very stupid i know. I am going into a detox clinic next week for a year and to start with they detox you on 2 weeks of subbys. i haven't took any methadone or any drugs since saturday. It is now thursday and im not really rattling yet. Am i better to now stay off the methadone till next week? My way of thinking is that maybe the naloxone has got rid of some opiates but i have been clean for 5 days so why put more methadone into my body when it takes longer to detox and in 5 to 6 days i will be going onto a subby detox any way. Please any advi...

Started zubsolv 3 weeks ago after taking subs for 6 years. I would only take a quarter to half of 8mg sub every 24 hours and would sleep like a baby all night. On these zubsolv's I'm lucky to sleep 2 hours then wake up for an hour then back to bed for another 2 hours. Very frustrating! My dr. Has me on 3 5.7 mg a day and it seems to me that only 2-4 mg of suboxone a day was working better for me.

Hi after a ten year opiate addiction I started to run out of money. I was highly functional for the 10 years home owner, business, wife, the hole nine. it was money and my own self torture that brought this to a halt. so 8 months ago I went to a treatment center in Florida not knowing if I would ever be normal again. I found myself completely incompasitated (I was in a wheel chair for two days) the dr there put me on a 5 day taper from 4 mil gram sub down to 2 in 5 days omg it worked within 3 weeks I was better and ready to go home. I felt better than I ever have so I went home and went to meetings. good things began to happen and as we do how quickly I forgot I was a sick person and stopped the meetings when the stress of everyday life came back 8 months later. I relapsed in a matter o...

I have been taking 30 ml of done for about a month. On tues I m switching to subutex. I was going to take my last dose of done Sunday then take nothing Monday. Go to the dr tues to start subutex. I know I will def be sick by then but want to make sure it's long enough cause I heard the horror story's of not waiting long enough. I've been a H, pill addict for about ten hears. I was on sub for about two years until last spring when I went to rehab. Got sober for a short period and f***ed up making a bad choice starting this cycle again. I think the 48 hours should be long enough. The dr actually said I could take my methadone dose mon but I m not taking the chance ## Since meth is long acting I would give it 2-3 days. ## hope that all worked out for you with the subutex. i saw...

Is 100 mg of methadone 6 times a day safe,I couldn't believe my sister is on this much ## Hello, Debbie! How is your sister doing? That is a very high dosage and quite unusual.

I'm trying to find out if the mylan brand subutex compares to the roxan brand 8 mg subutex is close to the same size. The pharmacy ran out of roxan 8 mg subutex and gave me the hi tech brand and I was surprised at how small they were. I quarter up the 8 mg subutex because more then that is a waste, IMO, and I've been doing it this way for months because it helps me not use as much. quartering a hi tech is impossible, very small pill, so my pharmacy said their warehouse was unable to get the roxan 8 mg subutex any more but could get the mylan brand 8 mg subutex so I'm trying to find out if the mylan subutex is close to the same size as the roxan brand subutex!!! PLEASE HELP ME!!!

I just want to say injecting subutex is TOTALLY AND COMPLETELY NOT WORTH IT! it's a waste of time and of your meds. I understand the need for the prick from a needle and I tried injecting subutext after reading numerous websites and forums and many people say they felt euphoric, nothing like a dope rush, but it made them feel better. I didn't feel s***! I started off with a small amount just to see how it felt, if anything, and honestly I was nervous not having known anyone personally who did it. Mind you I've been using heroin for a very long time. But I have an addiction to not just heroin but to the prick of the needle. It's sad and I feel pathetic, but I want to save hopefully at least one person from wasting their time! If you are withdrawing and you are lucky enoug...

Tenncare has completely stopped paying for the strips so now theyre paying for bunavail. These are nasty. Guess theres gonna be lots of complaints. ## Yes, I feel your pain. I may sound crazy, but I do not think it fair that TN care can make a deal with one company. I am on a low dose so they let me have the option to stay on strips and pay cash. That's what I'm doing for now. I wish I could just quit but I have tried and it seems to hard to me for now. The clinic says I'm sober....I feel like its cheating to say it and be on suboxone. ## I agree with you Shelley, that if any sort of substance is that difficult to kick, I too would feel like I was cheating by not being sober (which could defeat the purpose of taking suboxone anyway). Who would've thought a drug that is u...

I was involved in (MVA) Motor Vehicle Accident the year 2012. I was a passenger seated behind the passenger's seat. A big vehicle hit on ours from the left hand side where I was seated. Our vehicle rolled, the wheels were facing up - roof on the ground. I got out of the vehicle last as after people were calling my name for several times to get out of the vehicle. They were scared and thinking that the vehicle might get burned. I knew that I was in MVA and I must get out quickly but I didn't. Eventually I got out of the vehicle/car and pains were hitting very hard on my chest and back of the head. One hand was on my chest, the other hand was at the back of my pressing very hard. I tried to remove both of my hands because I was tired and I felt like the force was pulling me down/ I w
