Suboxone Forums (Page 40)

I've been on suboxone (now zubsolv) for a couple of years now. I really want to get off of them, but without them I'm extremely depressed and have absolutely no energy. I've tapered myself down from 2 mg to now .25 of one zubsolv. I have been on this quarter for one week Sunday. Im so scared of withdrawals, and I am in a situation where withdrawing heavily isn't an option. I am in an extremely difficult program in school, while also doing clinicals. I am in school or clinicals 5 days a week 40 hours a week. I got into pain pills when I was 18 because my boyfriend was taking them. We were both on 30 mg a day. We are both now on the suboxone (zubsolv). He gets prescribed them, but we both take them. With my school situation, I'm petrified that I will be denied into the...

I don't take suboxone on a regular basis. I took a quarter dose of suboxone today. When can i take my other pain medication? ## You'll need to wait about 72 hours, otherwise the Suboxone will just block the effect of the Morphine. 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? ## Does that count if you have been taking it for u months too? Been in subutex for 7 months for pain management and I can't afford it so I'm going back to my percocet 7.5s. Any advice verwon? It cost me about 500 a month for my subs. And my percocets were 4 dollars a month. I'm getting surgery in November...

So I made a stupid mistake that I will never ever make again no matter what kind of sob story I get. I loaned a friend/family member some of my suboxone and they promised to give them back when they went to the. doctor, their appointment was last Tuesday and I havent heard from them since the morning of their appointment. So I only. have two 8mg strips to last 11 days. I am on. one 8mg strip a day. My question is should I take 2mgscare every other day or. one mg a day, I have two jobs ## It didnt let me finish I have two jobs and children to take care of and cant afford to miss work or feel sick, what is the best way to space them out for 11 days without getting sick! ## Hello, Christi! How are you doing? Unfortunately, on this, I really don't have an answer for you. The dosage of S...

I have posted on other forums as one informed chic or trying to help as my name. but didnt know where to put this info, so im making a new post, i am using my real name this time, only first of course, hope it helps some people. I was in the dr. Office the other day and had to take a 12 panel urine drug test. As i had to fill out the info on it, i took a picture of the 12 things they test for. If you would like a forward of the pic sent to you, let me know or i can send you a list on here, just contact me. I think the more who know whats on there, the better. I can also give description of what could come up in each category as far as drugs. But again as i have said before, THC stays like 30 days but opiates, barbs, only stay for 3, bups cans stay for like 10 days. Im not sure about H. ...

White pill that was supposed to be a Suboxone or Subutex either or. She brought them home I took one and now I kind of feel sick. Been taking Subs for a few years now and have never seen one of these pills. Can anyone confirm or deny whether this is a Suboxone or a Subutex? It's white round with a slash in the middle #9 on 5 on the bottom. ## Hi Dale, I'm not finding a pill on record with the NIH that matches your description. There is, however, a Zubsolv pill which sort of resembles what you have described. It is white, round, blank on one side, and has the # 5 then a hyphen (-) then the # 7 printed a bit smaller on the other side. NDC code is 54123-957. Sort of like (5-7) Zubsolv contains the same active ingredients as Suboxone. Could what I described above be what you are loo...

I have to take Azithromycin for a tonsil infection. I'm on Suboxone. Can I take it without a problem? ## Hello, Linda! How are you? According to the FDA, taking them both could result in QT interval prolongation, which could be risky for some people with a heart condition, or other undiagnosed medical issues. Thus, you should only take them both, if your doctor has instructed you to do so and is monitoring you, in case of any problems. Are you on any other medications?

i recently got a 8mg 155 imprint with a half moon imprint on the other side, i read up that its an 8 mg with a 2 mg base. im not sure what that meant so my question is, is this 155 8 mg pill as strong as the 8 mg sublingual film? ## Hello, Rob! How are you? Yes, they are the same. The base just basically refers to it as being equivalent, to put it in very simple terms for you. The actual medical ones would be very hard to understand and I really don't feel like trying to spell them all, either. LOL But yes, it is the same dosage and just as effective. Is there anything else I can help with? ## Do they make round orange suboxone? ## Yes they do get them all the time. ## I was on sublingual film suboxone, well i took a half moon suboxone when i wasn't supposed to and im a lil worr...

I take different opiates: norco 5s, 10s, tramadol, whatever is available. I've always been in extreme pain since my car accident and I'm new to suboxone. My mother-in-law takes it for her opiate addiction. I never know how much is too much. I've taken one 8 mg sub and a quarter of an 8. Is that too much to take at once?

I'm aware that on a urine test it detects the metabolites produced by your body while taking suboxone, but does anyone know what the drug test reads exactly when dirty for subs? I just had subs show up and i seen something show up but wasnt sure what it said because i didnt get a good look but it wasnt bupe or naloxone. Anyone know? ## When you take a urine test what shows up when you take bupren/nalox? ## Does dcfs test for suboxone .i take suboxone but the case worker hasnt said anything to me about it ## Thought i would tell u my thoughts.i have been on subs for 1&1/2 yrs was dirty used real pee with a hole a half still showed up.when u find a way to beat it they will find a way to get the true results.just think they ars hard to come off of

Hello everyone! I've was a pain pill addict for almost 11 years. I had many of surgeries and have a lot of medical problems. I was put on the pain pills due to my severe pain. And, became addicted. Went on methadone to get clean. I was so sick of being an addict. I was on 110mg and weaned down to 24mg. At that point, I was withdrawing so bad. I went to my Dr. Whom is also an addiction specialist, in tears. I was begging him to help me. He said I could stay on the methadone and increase or go on suboxone. I had come so far down off the meth. That I didn't want to stay on it. Anyway , I went on subs. That day. I take 24 mg a day. I'm also on. 3mg a day of klonopin due to PTSD and anxiety. So happy where my life is today. I've been on subs for almost 8 years now . I know if...

how long does suboxone block diazepam elavil & lexapro. ## Hello, Silver Fox2! How are you? It does not block those medications. Suboxone contains Buprenorphine and Naloxone, the Naloxone only blocks the effects of other opiates to prevent their abuse, while someone is being treated with it and the Buprenorphine takes their place on the opiate receptors in the brain. The FDA classifies this medication as a narcotic analgesic that is most commonly used to treat drug addiction, 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 took 2 8 mlg strips rhis morning I got months ago incase I ran out and I went to the doctor the other day and he prescribed me 1...

My doctor is giving me suboxone for chronic pain from spine disease this is all he had had to offer because I refused to take any other pill form pain medications but because my insurance company won't pay for this medication I am in chronic pain it is not working as well I have been very depressed and now I find that my insurance company won't pay for it I'm at a loss and not sure what other medications can be given to me that are somewhat a controlled substance that will cover my pain ## Hello, Rose! How are you? Why did you refuse to take any others? If you're looking for something mild that may still help, you may want to ask your doctor about trying Tramadol. The FDA warns that its typical side effects may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and...

I broke my neck and my back when I was 29. Never used drugs, I didn't drink or anything, then they sent me to a pain clinic and they never told me it was addictive. I got addicted to it real bad. I have 2 kids. I never neglected them except for showing them my time. I got to the point that I can deal with addiction and more so I wanted a different life. I was on Suboxone for 3 years now and it made my life ten times better. I was able to be the parent that I needed to be. Now I'm just scared that I'm not going to be able to bring myself off of these. ## Hello, Samantha! How are you? Actually, the great thing about Suboxone is that most people are able to successfully come off it and be completely drug free. It does require a slow taper, but that's why it is preferred ove...

Hi, I have been going to a pain management drs office for several years and had never had any problems. When I went to my appointment like I do every month I submitted a urine sample. You go every 4 weeks. So I went back 4 weeks later and told me the lab had spilled my sample. I thought it was kind of odd but I took the test again. At my next appointment they had found a substantial amount of a drug called suboxone. I never even heard of that before and never took that medication. When I went back they told me I have been discharged from their practice. I am being blamed for something I have never taken. I have contacted several lawyers and legal aid. They all told me they couldn't help me. I even contacted medical labs. I don't know what to do and know they are 100% wrong. Extr...

I've been on done for 2 years . Weaned down from 95mg to 45mg. Due to hurricane Matthew and having to evacuate I took my last dose on Saturday . It's Tuesday , can I take Suboxene ## Hello, Sabrina! How are you? You have to be in full withdrawal, before you can take Suboxone, or it may throw you into dangerous precipitated withdrawals. The FDA warns that these medications carry the risk of being habit forming and may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, headache, dry mouth, and constipation. Is there anything else I can help with?

Hello I need HELP!! I'm freaking out!! I was on suboxone for maybe a year in a half!! Very low dose, I couldn't take a quarter a day or it made me sick!! So I took very small doses of one 8 mg pill that would last me a week!!! Before that I was taking percocet for two years. So I thought quitting would be easy since I did a very low mg but it was far from it!! The pain wasn't as bad coming off percocets, it was mentally driving me nuts on day 7 of maybe an hour or two of sleep for a week and that had me down. So I took a dose of Xanax (which I had never taken). It did nothing my whole detox!! Besides last night I took a Xanax half piece, I fell asleep, was up an hour later and took another whole .5 mg but couldn't fall back asleep for a long time! I either took another d...

I am a recovering addict. I've been on pain meds for yrs and I want off. I volunteered to get clean myself and got into a suboxone dr. I have been taking them properly but I had 20+ pain meds left and have took a few of them. So when I go and take my drug screen will the hydros show up? What do they test for? Please let me know what I am in for when I go to take my test.
