is this possible or is it all mental? I know someone who is on suboxone but prefers the subutex (white ones). He says that when he stops using them even suboxone doesn't help and that he feels sick. Is it in his head? ## The main narcotic in both of them is the same, it's Buprenorphine. The only difference is that Suboxone also contains Naloxone. Learn more Suboxone details here. So, it really doesn't make sense, but there's no way to be sure how any given medication is going to affect any given person that takes it. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## no, must be in your head, unless you cant hand...

Ok so I went to my suboxone doctor two mondays ago to get my script and as usual he screened me, i'm dirty for marijuana and he didn't expect me to be, so I went to my local smoke shop and bought U-Pass which is synthetic 100% clean urine, Now I obviously needed to show dirty for suboxone obviously as that's what he prescribes me, so i went to the bathroom poured the u-pass into the cup, the u-pass stayed right at 98 where it should, and I put a quarter of a suboxone film into the u-pass, I hand my doctor the cup he dips five mins later, it showed dirty of oxycodone and suboxone, how the hell did this happen did I put to much suboxone in and it caused a false positive for oxycodone, if so how much suboxone am I supposed to put in the u-pass to make sure it only shows up dirt...

I was in a auto 04/2010. My back is broke in several places and my L shoulder. My family an I were told I need a 24 hr operation on my back and a 12 hr operation to replace my shoulder. We were told I would not.survive either and need to be on comfort care with pain meds the rest of my life. I moved to cottage gove,mn 07/2014 and have been treated like I"m a street drug addict. This is a sin how people like me in the USA are treated. I was a Hospice RN for many years before the car accident. I am becoming suicidal from the pain. I have severe nerve pain in my back, but and legs to my feet. Methadone 30 mg 3 tomes a day is the only med that helps and oxycodone 2-3 tabs every 6 hrs for acute an break through pain as needed. I am 60yrs old. I should not have to suffer like this for the...

Hi guys. Been a long reader, first time poster. I'm quite experienced in the use of opiates and other meds from: dhc's 30, 60 and 120-s. ora morph, methadone, msts, oxycontine, Diaz, temaz, codeine phosphate, msjs etc etc. In fact there's very few that I haven't tried so pls feel free to ask questions and I will give info on MY experience as I'm no Dr and can only talk about my experiences. so hope I can be a useful member. Also have a question about some Diaz 10mg that are blank one side, cdc on the other; so I would say actavis, however these taste awful and are not the standard lactose taste of your legit 5 mg. Have I landed with some fakes or does this brand put out nasty tasting tabs? They're not unbareable but not the sweet taste like the 5's. that'...

Looking for guaranteed clean urine containing ONLY methadone and methadone metabolite.

I have been going to a methadone clinic for 7 years, I have been clean from all substance for 3 years. All of a sudden I get told I have a postive Urine for benzos. The only medication I take benedryl every night to sleep, and clonidine for blood pressure. Do u think the benedryl could have gave me a false positive? Please help!

changing from Methadone for pain to Suboxone for pain. Pain clinc is trying to pass the buck, I cant find a GP in or around the Trenton Ontario area to prescribe. I have been taken 150 mg pill form for 6 years works good. But moved pain clinc is in Oakville Ontario usually pain clinc wants your GP to take over prescribing but most GPs are nervous because they have to get a section 56 Methadone exemption. Canadian government needs to make it easier to get, would help out a lot of people. Try going to a Addiction centre just to get Medication closer to home. But those places are very very degrading they treat you like a criminal must pee in cup in front of them very week sometimes more. Also dirty place ect. I was getting prescriptions 2 months at a time. They wanted to give me a weeks wo...

Are the numbers on some methadone pills 54/142 then scored on the other side? ## Yes, that is a 10mg Methadone tablet, commonly used to treat drug addiction and severe, chronic pain. It is a narcotic analgesic. Common side effects include: nausea, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. You can read more here: Do you have any other questions? ## Yes i know, its my rx. I want to know if there is an otc med looks like them? I think the pharmacy might have mixed up my script.

I've come off methadone and on suboxone but after several days I'm still sick. When will this stop so I'll feel better. I have a family and I'm not doing my usual jobs to keep my home working like I want it to. ## Hello, Angela! How are you? Have you contacted your doctor? You may need the dosage of your Suboxone adjusted. It can sometimes be difficult, at first, to get it just right. It will most likely need to be raised, for awhile, then it can be lowered, once you're feeling better and things are back under control. This medication is listed as being a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. What dose are you currently on? ## It has been 15 days o...

I have smoked for 31yrs. and I stopped a week ago.I might get tested by law enforcement before I can get custody of my infant son.Please can someone tell me a sure fire way to pass a gov. drug screen and what kind of test does Walker co. GA use? 420 is harmless, but drug screens are very unconstitutional and demeaning .Thanks in advance. ## For habitual users, marijuana is generally detectable for approximately 30 days, after last usage. As to what test they use, I have no information on that.

I would like to know cause I take methadone and I've got subutex that a friend gave me but I thought it might hurt me ## I know for certain never to take suboxone..I take 90 mg of methadone and done a quarter of suboxone and litrally died they brung me back but I still have side effects from that nite ## @loco, I have to concur with becca on the fact that it's probably not safe to use either of these drugs within at least a few days of each other. One counteracts the other so much that it could potentially put your body into a life-threatening state of withdrawal (if taken at the wrong time). I have seen testimonies from other people who accidentally attempted this and later paid the price. Apparently when your receptors are filled with methadone, buprenorphine may take the meth...

i take 65 mg of methadone and i have an infection of parasites. i would like to to take diatomaceous earth without getting withdrawels is that possible ## Hello, Chris! How are you? How do you know you have a parasitic infection? Additionally, even if you do, diatomaceous earth isn't proven to eradicate them and I am unable to find any information on how it would affect Methadone. Have you consulted your doctor regarding this? The FDA lists Methadone as being a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

If I cut asuboxonestrip and used only bout a 2cm thick piece, will it have effect since im now able to take my normaloxycodonepain meds or would they just be wasted? ## It still contains Naloxone, along with the Buprenorphine, so it would neutralize most of the Oxycodone. The FDA lists these medications as being narcotic analgesics, so they have the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hi, my name is jay and i also was prescribed this pill. I know what it is and what it does but I was wondering if it has an opiate blocker like the D155 or the octagon one? ## Hello, Jay! How are you? Yes, this tablet is manufactured by Amneal Pharmaceuticals and they list it as containing 8mgs of Buprenorphine and 2mgs of Naloxone, which is the blocker. The FDA lists this medication as being a narcotic that is most commonly used to treat drug addiction, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation.

Hello. I'm 22 years old and I'm down to my last piece of suboxone. It's a bittersweet feeling because I am so sick of being on it! I've been planning to quit but I'm so deathly afraid of the wds. I was a heavy oxycodone user since I was 18 and have been on sub's for 2 years. I used to take 8 MG's and have currently been on 2mg for about 7-8 months. All the stories I've read makes me even more nervous. My problem is the depression and anxiety you feel from it. Does that ever get better? Even after the withdrawals pass? Pleaseee help. I'm a fulltime worker and can't take lots of time off in order to detox at home! ## Lindseylee79...that is way to high to jump off. Go back to Dr and get another 2week supply. You need to taper ever 7 days. Start with ...

On day 4 of sub detox, starting 5th day this evening. Anyone else out there doing this? Would love someone to chat with. ## Hello, DeeDee! How are you? I've never taken Suboxone, so I have no experience with coming off of it, but I can tell you that according to the FDA, some of the withdrawal symptoms may include nausea, headache, rebound pain, diarrhea and chills. How are you feeling? Is it going well? Others should be warned that this medication is a narcotic opiate, so it can be habit forming and withdrawing should only be done under the supervision of your doctor.

I was addicted to Percocet and Vicodin for 4 years I finally got off of them and immediately was prescribed suboxone 8mg a day. 3 weeks in I started getting tingly arms and hands and was so painful it would wake me up in the middle of the night. Suboxone doctor told me it was probably carpal tunnel so I got a wrist brace and a shot in my wrist. About 6 weeks in I couldn't wake up on time for work. I wasn't enjoying anything i was just going through the motions. I almost lost my job but my boss gave me some time off. So 9 weeks in I quit cold turkey. Day 1 and 2 were not bad as suboxone was most likely still in my system. Day 3 a lot of anxiety horrible chills and cold sweats body aches fatigue day 4 depression and anxiety and stomach issues. Day 5 stomach issues. This is day 6 a...

How are you? I'm very sorry that you're in pain. I'm sorry, but there is no listing of doctors according to what they will or will not prescribe that I can refer to for you. Technically, any doctor could prescribe it, but due to the new directives that were issued last year, by the DEA, most general practitioners won't and you'll likely need to see a pain management specialist.
