Suboxone 8mg/2mg And Roxicodone 30's (Page 5)
(Newest replies first)

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.
If it is herion then go with suboxone but very few doctors are able to to prescribe suboxone so you need to find the one that can not assuming the doctor you see can and that just cuts you off totally. You can do it and seem motivated!
Thanks Marc & KC, Yes I'm so afraid of withdrawal I have heard so many nightmare stories. However I'm just so tired of it all! Ya know, and I'm afraid if I piss my Dr. Off then it will be herion. Idk it all terrifies me. They have to be so touchy anymore. And I can understand where they are coming from with being able to loose their jobs ya know that is their living for their families. But at the same time, I say hell if we all want to kill ourselves then let us....lol....just joking. Thanks again guys!
You have to find a suboxone Dr. Your pain management Dr can not prescribe you the suboxone
The doctor wants you in withdrawal first so about 24 hours. I would seriously ask that doctor to ween you off first and if that does not work then try Suboxone. Suboxone is a great drug for people who are mentally into it. It helps deal with half the problem first and then deal with the dependency after. It worked for me but the withdrawals are not horrible but drawn out. Pill withdrawal sucks but can be tolerated for 3 or 4 days better than herion.
Thanks KC, but how do I ask my doctor to get me off the pills and onto Suboxone, and I was thinking f that were true about the 4days, I would be dead by then..
You can take subs after 18 hrs
Hi Everyone, I was in a work related accident in 1999, destroyed my left knee, back and hips. I was on 80mg of Oxycontin up to 8x a day, Klonopin, hydrocodone, for sleep and break through pain, so I went from that to Methadone n hydrocodone, now I am on 6- 30mg Ms Contins a day. I'm so sick n tired of the roller coaster and having to be careful about who I have my meds around, as my mother 72 is a opiate addict n alcholic , well I got her in rehab and of course she did very well. But then fell off stole my meds n purse. I want off but do not know how to tell my doctor, for around here you even remotely act a little funny they won't even see you any longer. A lot of real hard laws where I live. Anyway and also I had heard that you can't take Suboxone unless you have been off the opiates for at least 4days. Is this true. Because I have tried to stop before and OMG I was so sick, and restless legs really bad, well hell I don't want to do that again. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated from anyone, I'm scared of the pain,withdrawals, and being like my mother. Thanks in advance.
I be been taking 6-10 Roxys a day. Just ran out and decided to finally try subs, I only have 2-8mg subs, will it be enough to help me stop?. And the last roxy I took was this morning
THERES NO POINT TO DO ANY TYPE OF OPIATE AFTER TAKING SUBOXONE AS IT DOES A SERIOUS NUMBER ON YOUR OPIATE RECEPTORS ( STOPS YOU FROM GETTING ANY EFFECTS) REALLY DONT EVEN BOTHER WITH THE SUBOXONE UNLESS YOU WANT TO QUIT DOING OPIATES BUT DONT BOTHER WITH THE METHADONE PROGRAM AS SUBOXONE IS BETTER CAUSE WITHDRAWLS FROM THE METHADONER R 1000 000% WORSE THAN EVEN H SERIOUSLLY IM SPEAKING FROM EXPIERENCE
well the oxy wont work because suboxone is a opiate blocker as part of your goel to get off drugs. by the way if you want to get better then why even take the oxy. you need to decide if you want to be a addict or not. you want to not use drugs. so stick with the program take suboxone as prescribed. if your doctor does a drug panel and finds oxy in your system. he or she will take you off the suboxone and will notify the state and other doctors of your not following the plan to get better. you need to make a choice. waste your life on dope. or stick with the drug recovery plan. using suboxone and popping pills will or rather could kill you. I got clean with suboxone. but I followed the plan to the letter now I am drug free and will never go back. my sister died from H overdose. I am so sick of these damn drug dealers and doctors pushing all this poison out there. I wish I could get all these drug pushers out there and well for legal purposes wont say what I would do. lets say it would not be good for these dealers. I realize your addiction is making you use the oxy and with suboxone. you need to get counseling and go to narcotic meetings. hang with better crowds of people. maybe even reading the good book can help the bible in better terms. suboxone has a drug called naloxone in it this is the opiate blocker part of the suboxone. there is a way around the naloxone part of the suboxone. however I am not going to tell you. because I want you to get better and succeed in life. I know what you are thinking. he is a a**hole perhaps I am ok with that. but I only want you to get better I would not be doing justice if I told you the way around naloxone in the suboxone. just get better. drugs will kill you or land you in prison for stealing to support your habit or vehicular manslaughter. because you were high while driving. recovery is a very hard and long painfull mentally, but it is worth it in the end. full recovery takes about 3years one day at a time. but it is possible if you want it bad enough. if you ever wish to talk you can call me. {edited for privacy}. good luck.
I have been presribed 1 40mg oxycontin and 5 15 mg roxys a day for 9 months after hurting myself. My family found out and i have not been in pain for about four months. So i wanted to stop and they wanted me to stop. I waited 23 hours went to doc were he put me on one film a day. Its been 5 days and i never got sick accept the third day i got a headache from hell. I never get headaches and since then i felt normal. I am reading horrible s*** about suboxone. I feel like i went from one drug to another accept this one does not help with the pain or make me feel high. What happens if i man up and just stop? Or i was down to taking two 15 mg a day and being fine. I knew i was going to start suboxone so the week before i did like 300 mg a day ,but two weeks before that i was fine with 30 mg and if i had some help i could have probably gottrn down to !5 then percocet or vicodon. Then stopped. Im really confused right now. I like to drink but i havent this week. I never had a problem with any other drug before. Basically what im asking can i just stop? Or tom cut it into thirds and take two thirds then 1 third then none?. Please help me because after reading all i read is a bunch of people hooked on another drug!!
Trust in yourself and be ready. Suboxone is only good, and is really a good drug, only if you need to regain mental stability first. Any opiate is easier to withdraw from then suboxone. Maybe not easier but quicker. I have been down a dark path and it can be done one way and Suboxone was for me but miserable to come of. I even worked managing a store through it. If you want it bad enough you will suffer till you reach your goal. Sorry to be so blunt but that is reality. If anyone needs help or advice I am here.
I have been taking perks Vikks for about ten or more years an can't get off them an when a friend of mine had subs I tried one an it really helps but now I want off of them an have read it's hell getting off? I've only been taking a half twice a day an some times less. But will I have withdrawl? Everyone is saying it's horrible an some end up in hospital. I so scared!! Help
Hi Nikki nik, I just replied but it said my reply needed to be reviewed so I,m gonna make this one quick. Wait 16-18hrs before taking sub or your gonna get very sick. Try 2mgs/quarter of strip. Wait an hour. If not feeling better try 1-2 more mgs. Good luck.
Hi Nikki n, You need to wait until your in wds before taking suboxone. Wait about 16-18hrs. Two strips aren,t gonna do much in the long run. Subs are very strong. Try a quarter of a strip (2mg) wait an hour or more and see how you feel. If you need to take 1 or 2 more mgs.
Don't eat, drink or smoke 15 min. before and after taking. Put under your tounge and don't talk. Sit quietly. Hope you get feeling better.
I have been struggling with tapering from about 60 mg of oxycodone down to 25 mg in the past week.I have 2 8ng strip of subpoena that I'd like to finish tapering off with.I just need advice on how much of the strip to take! I have been reading the threads from others but I'm just scared to take too much or too soon and feel worse than I do already.I am a mother of 4 and don't have the option to just suffer through cold turkey, being that I have so many daily responsibilities. Any help would be greatly apprecuated. I just feel like I'm making myself suffer unnecessarily with the tapering when I could just take the sub.i was thinking of taking a 1/5 if the strip to start? And how long do I wait to take more if it's not enough,? I'm so discouraged and tired of feeling horrible please help! .
You will just waste what you have taken on suboxone. I was on Suboxone for 5 years and have been off it and opioids for a year and a half. It can be done but you have to want it. Trust me, life is so much nicer without the chase to feel better.
The same thing happens to me if I take my the pain pills my doctor perscribed me along with anything that makes you sleepy. Its one of the scarest things in the world and im sorry to say I have no idea what causes this to happen, but can only suggest that you take your last pain medication as early as possible that night. Taking mine 4-5 hours before I went to sleep was the only way. If I didnt take anything that made me sleepy, it wouldnt do it to me. I asked my doctor but he disnt really have an answer. Good luck finding your answer and hopefully it wont happen to us agin. No one realized just how scarey it was for me & it still scares me to go to sleep.
I would say you are taking too much suboxone..I know it bothers my stomach and makes me constipated just like any narcotic will do (constipation,nauseau)..I am on 3 8 mg. strips per day, well prescribed that amount but only take 1 and a half..I was on them once before but tried my best to get off and was down to 2 mg.'s per day but I could feel the shakes, the emotion's (anger or crying) coming on, the diarhea, depression, vomiting etc. if I did not take the little 2 mg.'s.. I know that is like 1/4th of a strip..I TRULY want to be off of drugs but have been on them so long that I really dont know what life is like without them..It scares me and I want to change but the fear of being 100% clean scares me too death
Hi rush! Yes your post was extremly long, and to be honest I did not read the whole thing! But here is my question to you?? What is your current perc mg a day?? You make is sound like your taking about 10 mgs a day or 15 mgs a day?? Everyone in this post is taking about 300 mg a day of perc or dope! So you saw a doc? What did he give u for. Sub mg? How many times a day! First off! Subs seem like the best choice for you, I you are taking such a low dose of Percs you are prob getting high off the sub! But trust me that will end soon ! En of story get ur crap together befor your using dope like the rest of us! Trust me you don't want to see what we have!!
