About 3 years I was working on a telephone tower and I fell 15 feet to the ground. I severely hurt my legs. My dr. prescribed me percocets for a few months, but then stopped me on them because he felt I should be better and doesn't believe in long term pain management. Well I continually bring to his attention the severe pain i have from my prior injury and he tells me that there is nothing he can do about it. I have been referred to another dr. by some friends, whom I go see in a few days. I really would like his help with pain management. I have heard that his pain management choice is methadone, which I have tried before and it really helped but, I would like to know if anyone has any suggestions as to what I can say to be sure that he will take my pain seriously and start me on ...

What do you do when your tolerance builds up to Suboxone? I am on 16 mg a day and it is not keeping me from wanting to use. Should i ask my doctor to up my dosage, or should I ask about a different drug? Need any answer, this subject is no where on the internet. ## Suboxone is not actually meant to do away with the cravings that result from an addictive personality and drug abuse. It is meant to help prevent withdrawals by helping you taper off your addiction to other medications, it will not help with the associated mental issues of craving them. There may be something else you can use to help with that, I am not sure, you really need to discuss it with your doctor. The only other one that is usually used for addiction is Methadone, have you considered looking into it? ## i have been o...

In the last 2 days I have taken total, 2mgs maybe less of suboxone. How long will it take for the suboxone to be out of my system. I have not been on suboxone prior to those 2 days. ## Suboxone, which contains Buprenorphine and Naloxone is a very potent opiate/narcotic. You should know that it is dangerous to use without a doctor's supervision. That said, with that low of a dosage and non-frequent use, it should be out of your system in 48 to 72 hours. Do you have any other questions?
