Suboxone 8mg/2mg And Roxicodone 30's (Page 9)

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 anx.....I will tell you from my expierience I was down to barely any subs like ....5 every other day then I stopped completely cold turkey I had terrible withdrawals for 1 week then my second week I was very blah! It was harder to get off subs for me then roxys, so I then decided to go back on subs week 4 because I could not adjust to normal! But everyone is diffrent my cousin got off sub very easy she had no problems except minor rls and blah for a few weeks but got back to her old self after 3 weeks I on the other hand was throwing up pissing out my ass and could not sleep which when your in wd you are just begging for 1 sub inside but you know it's for the better! As you can tell I'm back on the subs and am going to try again in jan with a diffrent approach because .5 every other day did not work for me! But best I luck and please keep us posted!
Thanks jolter needed to hear that yea weened down to that but i still get really bad rls but mainly n my arms so bad i cant sleep do u know anything to stop that it happens everytime i go a whole 24hrs. Without the sub
Hi Anxious, Did you come down from the 8mg. to .5mg. gradually? If so it shouldn,t be too difficult to jump off. I jumped at 1mg. once and .5mg. another time and both times weren,t too bad. NOTHING like oxy wds. Your gonna feel blaaaa thats the only way I can discribe it once the half life of the subs starts to wear off. The subs have an incredibly long half life. I could sleep both times I came off them and that was a big concern for me because of work. Good Luck. Post how your doing.
Been on suboxon strips 8mg for 6 months im down to maybe .5 mg a day for last 2 weeks i wana stop cold now how bad will it be for me and for how long my day to day is no break time plz advice
I just took my lt dose of suboxone two nights ago and I'm experiencing RLS and cold sweats. I'm not sure if I'm w/d from suboxone or roxys? I was up to 3-4 roxy 30 a day for 7 mtgs and i bought 7 subs in a matter of almost 2 weeks. I started big and cut down to slivers. How long will this feeling last? Thank you for all the support. I still have cravings but I'm afraid to get addicted to the subs now.
Hi Maya, Its hard to do but cut the quarter strip in half best you can. That gives you 1mg. Take once a day for a week. You can jump off then or take every other day for another week and jump. There will be some discomfort but very doable. Some OTC aids may help for a couple days but the wds will be very minor. I,m no dr. but have come off subs before. Good Luck
HI Desperatelovingwife, I was taking 15-20 30mg oxy/day and at first sub dr. tried 8mg once/day. I was still sick. 12mg or 1and half strip once/day did the trick for me. Yes it sounds like your husband took subs too soon. You NEED TO WAIT at least 17-20 hrs. after last dose of your DOC before taking subs. Hows he doing now? I realized pretty quick that I could lower dose after first week and not notice much difference. Like 12mg to 8mg to 6mg,4,2, 1 then 1/2 then off of them.
I agree
Maya I posted a method of getting off the subs below! If u are already on a quarter that is not very much at all! U need to start trying to take them every other day or cutting your quarter in half as well! They say there is a detox plan off of suboxone as well!!! All u need is 5! But I you are already taking a quarter all you can do is take less and less everyday ! Your so low on mg of sub you should try to cold trurkey it or do it every other day! Sub wd is horrible but try to do it in 2 weeks! Set a goal for your self an if your not strong enough I suggest a dr to help you getting off them!
You can't mix them both together. You will get sicker!!!
You just don't get sick!!! Ain't that enough???
My husband has been taking oxy for more than two years and decided to quit but did so suddenly without preparing me or giving me enough information. I couldn't find sufficient info on how to properly administer suboxone and he took 8mg and taking another 8 shortly afterwards. I think he went into precipitated withdrawal bc he started vomiting violently and was screaming from pain. He took 28 mg total his first day but I know he's doing this wrong. Is it better to take 2 8mg tablets in the morning? I don't know how to correct this. He's been crazy sick all day. Please help me help my husband be free of opioid addiction. It has completely robbed our children of a father. We want him back.
Hi I just read your post and I have a lot of questions that I feel haven't quite been answered yet I have been taking percocet 30 mgs for a few years and just quit a couple months ago I was taking suboxone 8 mg strips started off on a half a day and now Im down to a quarter a day to try and make it stretch out because i don't have a doctor and had to get them off the streets. I have been on the sub strips for just 2 months and want to quit them before it gets too hard i just don't know how bc i start feeling wds I have a 5 yr old son and don't have any time to jus lay here and be sick this is very frustrating for me because i don't have anyone to talk to and no one understands me the worst part is you think you're doing good because you got away from your main addiction but feel trapped still with the subs and noone believes me when i say I'm clean well clean of pills its discouraging Im finally trying to reach out to someone I just need some advice to try and get off these subs I don't want to be stuck in this vicious cycle of needing something to feel normal. The only good thing is they did get me away from the 30s please help me
two weeks on a 120 mg methadone addiction is hard to believe.You are a viking warrior.I went 62 days without a solid bowel movement from a 90 mg cold turkey detox.Zero help when you get locked up up in florida.
im going on 4 yrs of oxys 3 to 6 a day subs work as soon as u take them sickness all goes away its like u get to start all over again
Do you still get a good feeling off of the subs ?
2 30s a day is not a lot at all!!! I was on at least a min of 8 and I started getting 3 8mg a day! I started off just taking 2 8 mg a day because 3 is a lot! An I didn't need it! I think if ur finding them on the streets I think you should get at least a min of 5, cut them into 3 pieces after 24 hours of being opiate free take a 1/3 right in the am and another 1/3 around dinner time if you feel you need more cut them in halves and take half at a time 2 x a day that should be plenty and do so for 5 to 7 days! Slowly cutting your dose less and less untill ur taking tiny pieces!! I'm not going to lie you are not going to feel f***ed up ! But it will evade the sweats the restless legs the s***s and the pukes! After the 5 - 7 day of suboxone just stop don't take anymore don't take another pill don't take any more subs! as hard as he'll as it will be you do not want a life of suboxone!! I wish I stopped taking it after I got out of detox! Well here I am 4 years later stuck on suboxone to make me function and have a life and be a mother to my children i can miss 1 day of no subs but that's it! If I miss 2 I'm sick as s***, just like I was when I was on pills,, but at the same time subs saved my life who knows where I'd be with out them! Everybody is different if you feel like you need to take subs long term then get in a sub dr! Don't go back and forth with subs and pills! It's not worth it, I personally take 2 subs every day for the last 4 years! But hopefully you can stop after a week of detox off pills! Wish u luck!
If i have been taking 2 30mg roxi a day for the past 6 months how much suboxone would i need to take per day in order to avoid feeling withdrawals
