Suboxone 8mg/2mg And Roxicodone 30's (Page 13)

Updated

I am currently taking Roxicodone 30's each day. I have suboxone 8mg/2mg to help get off of these. I know the suboxones are the best pill made to help with the withdrawals but I'm wondering if for the firsrt 3 to 5 days when I'm having trouble sleeping and feeling clammy, if i should take like half of a Roxicodone 30 (which i have done in the past), as it helps me to sleep and takes away the clammy feeling? Any other suggestions that you may have? Thanks to anyone answering this for me.

Hi Lisa hard to say I already suffer from depression I think a lot of it is because your getting used to being off the other stuff and on that and with suboxone you finally feel everything you didn't before but I can say that being on it has made me not as happy shall I say it has it's pros n cons I've been on it awhile for my second time and I'm on a real high dose

You are depressed because you just realized you have to get off this junk.You are doing it.This isn't easy.Of course you will get depressed.Pet your dog and throw the ball. If you don't have a dog then go pet your neighbors till you are stable enough to care for your own.Don't stay on the subs long.Get in and get out.you gotta be tough.Mentally and physically.After you kick this crap and become non dependent you will know in your heart and mind that the sky is now the limit as far as achieving your goals now.Be happy you are alive.!You are getting sober right? That is enough to rejoice about right there but you don't feel like it. Pretend you have a terrible flu for three to five days and get yourself way ahead of the game.You can only do one of two things.Succeed or fail.Even failure is winning.Go without for 48 hours and then 2mg of sub strip makes you feel like an athlete..2..1..1/2--zero.Valium 10 mg for six or eight nights for anxiety.No more than one and if you can break them in half then more power to you.Get your I-pod out and charge it.You will steer at the ceiling many nights.Big deal..Read a book.you will be fine in ten weeks.Stay away from the good friends you have been hanging with and your fine!!!Good luck.

"..............I also need some advice on how to afford the appointments and the scripts for suboxone since i have very low income and NO insurance..any advive would be so appreciated! god bless you and i am so proud of you :)........"

My answer:
Dear BeautifullyScarred,
I support you in this path of getting out of drug. To save money and get your med, try looking for Discount Card on the internet. The trick is: Each discount card is different. For example, you may find discount card with the name RXRELIEF, which may help bring down the price of anti-biotic very well but may not bring down the price of SUBOXONE at all. You just have to keep getting at least 5 cards and bring to pharmacies that like you and GIVE THEM TIME to try to find the best card that can save you most money. Some pharmacy people have good heart to help you but they have no time. You have to give them time to help you. Also, the price that you see on internet at the web site of discount card is NOT TRUE PRICE. At each pharmacy, each discount card will be slightly different. Remember, give time to the pharmacy people to find you the lowest price. Always Always Always be nice to pharmacy people. They have tricks to help you. If you are nice to pharmacy people, you may get lucky and meet a few good persons.

In the past, Jay wrote and asked at Wed, Dec 14 '11, 9:53 AM" .............how long do i need to wait to take a sub after taking a 1/4 pill of roxy 30 My friend told me that i would get sick if i did not wait 24 hours...my WDs start 5 hours later so waiting 24 hours is not possible......"

My answer:
Wait time depends on you. After your last pill of Oxycodone, you can wait 4 hours, then, take Suboxone. Or, After your last pill of Oxycodone, you can wait until you have SOME signs and symptoms of withrawal, then, take Suboxone. Why? Okay, let's slow down and see inside our human brain. Like a football game, we have receiver. The receiver will receive chemical. Oxycodone or Suboxone whatever you used is the ball. After receiver gets the ball, receiver will HOLD the ball for a long time. During HOLD time, receiver will not take any new ball. If you take Oxycodone then, the ball of Oxycodone be held by receiver for hours and then let go to trash. How long will receiver hold Oxycodone? Depends on your body. Your body may hold Oxycodone for 4 to 5 to 6 hours...maybe more....10, 11, 12 hours...That depends on your body. How do I find the time my body holds Oxycodone? You when you have SOME withdrawal signs and symstoms, you body did let go of Oxycodone. When should I take Suboxone? When you have SOME withdrawal signs. Don't wait until you have ALL withdrawal signs because I do not want you to suffer. Just when you have some withdrawal signs, take Suboxone. Your body will hold Suboxone at receiver site for about 24 hours to 40 hours (depending on your body.)

You wrote:
"My friend told me that i would get sick if i did not wait 24 hours... This sick that you worry about is the sick caused by NOT HAVING YOUR MED. Suboxone does not cause you to be sick. Imagine you and me are lost on an island, we have nothing, no Oxycodone, no Suboxone. After some hours, we will feel sick because our bodies have no Oxycodone. That's the sick your friend is talking about.

You wrote:
"my WDs start 5 hours later so waiting 24 hours is not possible......" Then, after 5 hours, take Suboxone. You do not have to wait 24 hours.

Good luck on you way out of this.

Hi lisa, when I first got off oxys and switched to suboxone, I felt. Tad but depressed, I wasn't getting the effects from suboxone that I was getting from pills! My body went into slow down mode and my mind do to as well, I felt like this is not going to work for me, this is not strong enough, I felt like I wasn't going to be able to do the simple tasks of doing laundry and taking a simple shower, it was awful, I don't know if I was depressed or just lazy and pissed suboxone wasn't doing the trick like everyone said it would! After 2 weeks on subs I felt a drastic change, I was able to live a normal life, with out feeling lazy and low, I am not sure how depressed you are feeling, but it's true in all drugs you suddenly stop, all drugs can cause a mild depression to an extrem depression when you stop using , suboxone is suppose to help you not get sick and help you threw your detox, or be there every day for you if that is the route you are going, I'd def talk to your dr about the depression an maybe consider a light anti depression med if the depression has not subsided, I am usually against all this pills that drs throw at you, but I do believe if you need them for a short time to get ur brain re wired then what's the harm!!

I'm not sure if anyone still posts on here but it's worth a shot...I used to have a problem with painkillers. A pretty big problem actually..I couldn't get out of bed without insufflating something, lost 20lbs, spent 1000s of dollars etc etc. ..last July I decided I couldn't live my life chasing pills and living dollar to dollar anymore, so I began taking subs. Not through a dr. But on my own. I convinced myself that give it a month or two id be normal again. Well 8months later and I'm not....I know it hasn't been that long but this is taking longer than I planned and I would love some advice.....I only take about 2mgs of an 8mg strip a day. Sometimes less. And I only take it when I start to feel I need to. Clamy, eyes tearing down my face, hard to swallow feeling, legs and arms hurt etc.....when I do take it it's usually early in the morning then I go back to sleep and wake up feeling 100%....my concern is am I taking it wrong? And if I stop cold Turky how long will I suffer terribly? I usually last 20-24 before I have to take another 2mg. Thanks to anyone who responds.

I just started subs today. I was very nervous to even try, but I just want my life back. I'm not even sure who I am anymore. The doctor prescribed me 8/2 3 times a day!!! Not knowing anything about it I thought it sounded like a lot. I've taken my first dose and I cut it half...so 4 mg...I feel somewhat foggy but now I'm getting extremely anxious. I took it 3 hours ago. Any advice? Are you still on them? Thank you. II'm just looking for someone to talk to that understands this.

Hi Toomanyyears, 3 strips a day is a lot. Thats 24mgs. If your cutting them in half or 1 and half strip a day is 12 mgs. Thats what my sub dr. started me on for a 500-600mg a day roxy habit. I,m no dr. but 24mg/day is a high dose. Just because subs don't make you feel high there still a very strong med. It takes a few days at first to get used to them. Whatever dose you decide to take you should stick with same dose for awhile so your body can adjust to it. Don't jump around with dose levels. I,ve found it best to take whole dose first thing in morning.

Hi I am on three strips a day I have been for awhile now your body gets used to it but if your tired when you wake up don't take it right away it will make you more tired wait a little while I take one in am one in afternoon and one at night you should always try and take it at the same time of day I have a fast metabolism so for me after the eight hrs I have to take it right away that's just me with any drug it takes time getting used to and at first they tend to make you alittlr hyper for me they wake me up everyone is different I'm 36 and have been battling this since my 20s we are all used to that feeling we get from what ever drug we used and now we don't feel that we feel real emotions n reality it's hard and a battle for life if after some time you don't feel right talk to your doctor about it be honest about everything there are pros n cons with the subs good luck
