So, you can't add any other narcotic, you'd have to stop taking it for a few days, before you could try something else....

I have been on 8mg Suboxone sublingual 2 times a day for the past 12 days and I am still throwing up some days and nauseated badly always. I have really awful indigestion and everytime I belch which is constantly, a little vomit comes up.Is this normal and what can I do? I know it takes a few days to get used to the drug, but throwing up everything defeats the purpose. I take Suboxone as an alternative to opiates for chronic back back pain. ## Have you tried taking it with a small meal and not on an empty stomach? That can often help with the nausea caused by narcotics. Learn more Subutex details here. Alternatively, I'd suggest speaking to your doctor, as they may be able to prescribe something to help with the nausea.

I need to know if ANYONE has any information regarding KY state regulations of the detoxing and administration of Subutex with pregnant women. Can an MD pull the prescription without warning from a pregnant woman? what are the side effects of withdrawal from this with mother/child in last trimester? ## If the woman is not in immediate, life threatening danger, then no doctor is required to treat her, or prescribe any medication, even if she is pregnant. A doctor has the right to discontinue treating a patient, or prescribing any medications, at any time they deem appropriate. The same as the right as patient has to decide they no longer want to see that doctor, or stop taking any given prescribed medication. The only time treatment is obligated from a medical profession would be if her ...

I have the relatively new generic for subutex. It's round and white with the numbers 54 411 on one side and blank on the other. I was wondering if u ingest this sublingual like the original or if u swallow it. Please let me know. ## This is an 8mg Buprenorphine tablet, the active ingredient in Subutex and yes, it is meant to be used sublingually. Is there anything else I can help you with? ## I took only a quarter of the generic subutex. about 43 hours ago and now i need to take a vicodon. dose any one know if its ok to do that. Cuz i heard if you take it to soon you can get withdrawl symptons or you have to take more than usual because of the opiet recepters.?????????? ## It should be fine, but you may nite get the full effect of the vicodin due to the high affinity to the receptor...

I took suboxone 4 days ago and have to take a urine test in 3 am I ok or screwed?? help!!! ## So, you mean there'll be a 7 day span between when you last took it and the test? If so, then in theory you should be fine. The Buprenorphine in it is usually detectable for approximately 4 to 5 days after last dosing. Learn more Suboxone details here. The precise time frame can vary from person to person depending on certain individuating factors, such as your metabolism, overall health, activity levels and etc. Are there any other questions or comments?

Ive been on suboxin for just over a year. ive never had an acne problem before but in the last 6 months im always breaking out. has anyone else had this problem. ## I've never taken Suboxone, but I have had it happen with both Oxycodone and Morphine. Nothing worked to clear it up, until I stopped taking them, either. Learn more Suboxone details here. How severe are the breakouts? Have you spoken to your doctor about them?

I've been doing 10 bags of heroin a day for a while now. I got my hands on 6 - 8mg tablets of Suboxone. I planned on waiting the full 24 hours as recommended, but I woke up at 730am feeling violently ill. It happened to be the 19th hour. I felt this was sufficient enough time, plus I had to go to work. I took a full tablet, and have felt pretty good all day up until 5pm today. My question is when is the next time I should take another dose and how much?? ## I can't really say what the dosage is that you should take, it is normally carefully calibrated by a doctor, taking into consideration how much you were using of the drug(s) that was being abused. If one 8mg tablet worked well and you weren't experiencing withdrawals, then that is probably the right amount to go with, but...

I take 200mg ms contin plus 30mg instant release ms contin for break thru pain. Will methadone show up different than ms contin in UA? And how long will methadone stay in my system? ## Yes, they would be detectable as different substances. MS Contin contains the active ingredient Morphine, which is a different narcotic than Methadone. Most narcotics are usually detectable for a urine test for 4 to 5 days, after taking them, though this can vary, depending on your individual metabolism, activity levels, how much you've taken and how frequently. Are there any other questions? ## Methadone is completely different than morphine.... And methadone stays in your system 2 to 3 times longer. Depending on personal factors such as metabolism, water intake and such morphine generally shows up i...

Small round yellow tablet with line through on the one side. My mom says its a nerve pill. Helps her relax and sleep better. ## From what I'm finding, this tablet contains 10mgs of Methadone, which is a narcotic opiate that's used to treat pain and drug addiction and is not a nerve pill. Learn more: Is there anything else I can help with? ## that is most definitely not a nerve pill. i know for a fact that this is a 10mg methadone pill, a very potent, extremely addictive medication that they use to treat heroin and other opiate addictions.

I wasn't fully aware of the detox from Suboxene!!I only take 4to8mg/day&when I dont have them for a few days I almost feel like I did coming off off Heroin!!How long will the detox from suboxene last?!? ## Suboxone contains the active ingredients Buprenorphine and Naloxone. The Buprenorphine is still a narcotic opiate, so suffering some withdrawal symptoms, if you run out, or abruptly stop taking them is perfectly normal. Learn more Suboxone details here. And while the symptoms should slowly taper off in severity, they can last for a month or so, depending on how long you have been taking it. Are you under a doctors treatment with it?

Hi I'm so scared to totally come off suboxone.. I've been taking 8mg of subs for about 5 years .. I've never been prescribed them I just found them wherever I could. 3 weeks ago I went from 1-8mg a day to 1-4mg a day.. I was craving a little but no serious withdrawal symptoms.. Now I only have 10 subs left and I can't get them anymore ... This will last me about 20 days ....what can I do in 20 days to have the least amount of withdrawal symptoms .. Please help me I'm scared out of my mind!!!!! ## Well, to be honest, the best thing you could do would be to seek medical assistance. The Buprenorphine in Suboxone is a very potent narcotic and to stop taking it and avoid severe withdrawals, it needs to be tapered as slowly as possible. Depending on how severe the addictio...

looking for dr to prescribe methadone in pg county md area have documents to support need due to injury but cannot afford the private clinics they will not take insurance ## The private clinics will only prescribe it for addiction, anyway.

Hi I live in northern new jersey clifton, rutherford, nutley area and need a good doctor that will prescribe suboxone so I can get off oxycontin.

Really want to get off of this stuff. will pay cash if have to. ## Well, in such cases, most doctors are going to want you to just taper off of the Oxycontin, because it is easier and safer.
