I live in Ma. and I was told they will only pay for the brand name if I have children under 7 in my custody, I was wondering id anyone else has had any problems with the generic suboxone... ## You definitely need to consult your doctor. The hives and other symptoms could be the sign that you're developing an allergic reaction that has the potential to be very dangerous. Learn mo...

a round pill with a d on one side and it has 155 on the other ## Hi Lois, It looks like this question has already been addressed in another thread here on the site: Discuss/Pill-d-On-One-Side-155-The-Other-244029_s2.htm Although someone mentioned that it was a generic Suboxone tablet, I haven't come across many other details to verify it's accuracy. Is Suboxone something that you think this might be, perhaps based on any past prescriptions or people you know? I hope this helps! ## Let me straighten ya all up a bit. Can't find any pics on any sites yet, since they just came out I guess. Just got my Generic Suboxone. It is white, round, 1/4 moon on it, 155 on one side. It states on the bottle Generic for Suboxone. It says Buprenorphin-Naloxon 8-2 MG TB. Manufacturer is Actavis...

A friend of mine gave me a suboxone to try for heroin withdrawl. First i want to say this is a miracle pill. In my personal experience. Second thing is can i buy it in mexico? Its is way too costly without insurance. I desperately want to get off of heroin. I am ready, done and sick of it. Not just for myself but for my 10 year old daughter and my soon to be 7 year old son. I just want my life back. Its been two years now since i tried and got addicted. The only reason i keep doing it is to not feel s***ty and to function on a daily basis. And i know that suboxone will help me quit. Please anyone out there that can help me with an answer or where to find an answer would be helping a person to once again become a functioning member of society and two children that get their loving daddy ...

I took 16 mg of suboxone at 4am Saturday morning and got my morphine filled now. Is it safe to take it after 16 hours? ## Hello, Scott! How are you? No, the Naloxone in the Suboxone will prevent the Morphine from having any effect, you usually need to wait at least 72 hours, before other narcotics will work, again, unless your doctor instructs otherwise. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## I felt my morphine after 48 hours of not taking suboxone. ## I have been taking 12mg of Suboxone a day for over a year now bc I have been going to a counseling/rehab place bc I am a chronic pain pat...

I'm on day 19 of suboxen withdrawal. Only problems I have is sever insomnia. Have not slept other than 1 hour every other night for 1 week. I tapered off very small dose slowly (.125 or.06). The pieces were so small I had to grab with little tweezers. When will I start sleeping? Also when will restless legs at night stop? ## I took saboxyn for two years and the whole time the clinic lied to me they said it was getting me off opiates but the fact is that it is a opiate I'm thinking of during them fact is that they make you think they are helping you while really they are getting you addicted to there drug I stead of another that your insurance pays for I'm proud of you for trying to stop taking it but I'm sorry to say you may have to go to a rehab because you will stay in...

Does medicaid in Alabama pay one day early on suboxone? I have a thirty day supply for 4mg suboxone twice a day. Will medicaid pay for it in 29 days? ## Does Alabama Medicaid pay for 90 8mg subutex pills a month with a prior authorization? ## Mobile, Al here...MEDICAID COVERS SUB TREATMENT/Dr's???

NEED LISTS OF DRUGS THAT CAN GIVE A FALSE POSITIVE TEST FOR BARBITUATES. ## Hi Dale, Was there any specific drug in general you were thinking of? I found a list of drugs that can test positive for Barbiturates, however to my knowledge it may not be a complete list: askdocweb.com/falsepositives.html NOTE: the list is not just on Barbiturates, but a wide range of false positives, so you will have to skim through the page to find the drugs you are looking for. I hope this helps! ## Can the reverse of this list be had?! I have a drug screen that is + for barbiturates. Do you have a list of what specifically can cause that ## I know this is old but i tested positive for barbiturates. I have never taken them.

i tested positive for methadone when my doctor made me take a urine test last week and i have never ever taken methadone. i am on suboxone, could that give me a positive test for methadone? ## There are many diffrent things that can and will cause a false positive for methadone and this includes benadryl and some other antihistamines. Hope this helps ## Are you sure that someone didn't switch UA'_s on you?the reason I ask is because I go to s Suboxone clinic and we all do our UA in the bathroom and then take the finished specimen up to the front office where it goes into a bucket where all the other u a's are placed and they aren't under lock and key so they are easily available!As a matter of fact...I have had a problem lately where I have had 3 tests in a row come back...

Hi, I was informed just two days ago from my pharmacist that there is now a generic form of Suboxone film available and that's what Medicaid receiptents will receive opposed to the Brand-name Suboxone film. Ironically, my pharmacy was completely out of the generic therefore, I was able to have my insurance still approve the name brand although, I'm sure that'll change soon. Has anyone been given the generic film yet? If so, did you notice any difference or any negitive effects? ## I have never taken this medication, so I can't speak as to experiences with it. Can anyone else that has taken it, already, please chime in with what you think of it? The FDA warns that this medication carries the risk of being habit forming, and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizzines...

I just started on Suboxone a few days ago. We're still even trying to figure out my dose. I have a lot of health issues that cause pain and one being endometriosis. Because i just started suboxone, i haven't had my period on it yet and i don't know how that will go. In June i got a script for June and a script for July of percocets. I have a script for percocets at the pharmacy. Would it be illegal and could i get in trouble or considered double doctoring, to fill that script with the same drug card i use for suboxone? So i have a back up just incase this doesn't work out especially around that time of month when ur on the floor throwing up from just pure pain alone. (I do not use the same pharmacy for suboxone as i do for percocets because when u start on suboxone u go ...

I can take up to 8mg per day but I only take around 4mg per day for knee pain. I have had mouth pain off and on for the last year and I thought it was a yeast infection so I went to my GP and they did a diagnostic and it was not a yeast infection. It eventually went away, I think my doctor gave me an antibiotic but I also ate tons of yogurt. It happened again and I was taking a medication that caused my body to dry out. I have a big problem with dry eyes so my doctor then felt that I had a dry tongue. I started washing my mouth out with violene mouth wash and using xylimelts in my mouth at night and that made it go away. Now it is happening again so I wanted to know if it could be my suboxone since I am no longer taking the other medication. If it is the while top of my tongue is sore a...

Hi. I am getting on suboxone and i haven't taken opiates in a few days. Should i take opiates so i am dirty when they drug test me or does it not matter? ## Usually, to start Suboxone for addiction treatment, the person has to be in full withdrawals, if you aren't, it can cause severe withdrawals, due to the Naloxone in it. They base the starting dosage on how much of it your drug of choice you were taking. Have you consulted the doctor about it? ## I have been getting suboxone from a friend for about 3 months. Well I'm starting to feel as though I'm not breaking that habit if you know what I mean. So I'm looking into going to a doctor and getting suboxone on my own. Do I have to be on drugs to get a prescription?

I was given a pill and told it was suboxone, it has a big AN on the top and 415 under the letters. There is nothing on the back. Its orange and completely round ## That is correct, this tablet contains 8mgs of Buprenorphine and 2mgs of Naloxone, it is a generic for Suboxone, which is most commonly used to help treat drug addiction. Learn more Suboxone details here. Since it contains an opiate narcotic, it does have the potential to be habit forming itself and it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, dry mouth and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Is it also taken sublingual? ## Yes, that is the new generic form of suboxone. I just recently got them too. I had a bad experience with them though. They did not work for me like the brand name suboxone. Not...

I am not on suboxone, and have not taken or done any, but my drug test keeps coming up positive for it. Is there anything such, other medications, stuff in food or drink, etc. that could be causing this false reading? Please help. ## It is possible with some other medications, for instance if you have taken anything that contains other synthetic opiates, such as Oxycodone or Hydrocodone. However, no, it should not just show up from foods or beverages. Can you post back with a list of the other medications you take, even over the counter items, so I can check for you? ## I have only taken suboxov in treatment 10 months ago, but my urine came back positive for suboxone.

I take Suboxone for fear of ever being back on the evil Methadone and it's working wonderfully. But I get horrid migraines and have these Butal with 30mg COD and was wondering if withdrawal would take place because of Naloxone? Bbuck ## It won't hurt. It won't help. You'll simply waste the meds ## It is the COD that is actually the narcotic, that stands for Codeine and the Naloxone in the Suboxone will neutralize it, so there's no point in taking it. This is a narcotic analgesic, so it has the potential to be habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, drowsiness, dry mouth and constipation. Have you consulted your doctor? They should be able to help you determine what medication may help. ## I have felt Norco 12 hrs after suboxen. I still fe...

I have been addicted to lortab, norco, viocoden for 20 years I took between 14 to 3 a day. Today I am on norco 10/325 5-6-7 a day. I was given Suboxone 8mg/2mg. I would not be able to drive 200 miles during a withdrawl of 24 hrs. My friend gave the Suboxone to help me stop my addiction the the pain pill. Could some one tell me how much to start a day subliq. ## I'm sorry, but the proper dosage of Suboxone is very carefully calculated using formulas that aren't made public. It's based on the drug being abused, how long its been abused and the amount being taken. Additionally, Suboxone can't be taken until you are already in full withdrawals, because taking it too soon may cause you to go into dangerous withdrawals. Learn more Suboxone details here.

I want to to know if my MEDICADE will COVER my PRESCRIPTION of SUBOXONE and or the DOCTOR visit ## What Medicaid will cover can vary tremendously from state to state depending on current regulations and funding, so the best suggestion I can make is to call your caseworker and ask them if they know. Learn more Suboxone details here. Alternatively, you could also try calling one of the doctors that treat with it in your area and ask them.

I took a suboxone at 11 pm and took a urine test at 5 pm the next day. will i fail? ## If they are testing for suboxone, yes it will show up. What kind of urine test is it? And what is the purpose of the urine test? Your situation depends on those variables. From my understanding, Drs have to specifically test for buprenorphine. It will not show up on a standard 5 or 10 panel dip test. But if your being tested by an addiction Dr, pain management or parole/probation and the test is sent to a lab it will show positive for Bupe. ## You will be fine! It will show up not matter what ## How long will it take 15mg liquid methadone to be detected in urine?? ## More than likely. Suboxone stays in your system for anywhere from 5-10 days.
