Subutex Forums (Page 27)

i have been abusing prescription pain medication for 6 years & am looking for a doctor in my area that prescribes subutex or soboxone. ## Hello, Anna! How are you? They actually have a website you can use to look for a doctor in you area, it's at suboxone.com, so you can use that to search. Learn more Suboxone details here. This also contains a potent narcotic, so it has the potential to be habit forming, but unlike Methadone it has enabled many people to become completely drug free. Is there anything else I can help with?

So last weds. My drs nurse called and asked me to come in and do a pill count I called back and let them know that I am not in town, well the nurse said she is canceling all my appointments and I am being discharged from the program! I was very upset about this so I kept calling and calling with no results well then Friday my dr herself called and told me that on Monday I can come in for my appointment as scheduled but if my levels are off I will be kicked out of program immediately. Well I really don't have everything in my system as I got them stolen but I could not tell the dr that as I was already in trouble for not coming in for a count . So I am willing to go find some subutecs elsewhere but I want to make sure I can get my levels up to a (12 Mgs a day level) on Monday at my a...

I need to know how to bring my levels for subtexts back up? I am being given a second chance to be on the program and my levels have to be right which is 12 Mgs a day. I have not taken 12 Mgs for a week in a half as I was only taking 4 Mgs a day because they got stolen, my dr would not accept that as an excuse she just said i will have a chance on monday to stat on the program but my levels have to be right, my friend wants to help but I do not want to put her in a bad spot as I will owe her. I want to make sure that if I start taking my dose or more today that my levels will be ok on Monday which is two days away. Please help!

What is klonodin used for? ## My doctor wanted to give me clonodin on top of my script of subutex....why? ## Hi, Nikki! How are you? Did your doctor want to give you Clonidine or Klonopin? Those are both possibilities based on your spelling, so I am not sure which one it is that you're asking about. Could you please post back and clarify? Thanks!

I can't find an MD in the Phx area that will prescribe Subutex, NOT Suboxone (doesn't work 4 me). I need name of MD. PLZ. I don't want 2 p/u again. {edited for privacy}.

My dr. says you cant get subutex in CANADA,not in CANADA and that sucks, I WANT SUBUTEX and xyrem too, lol! CANADA SUCKS! Yet i hear someone say under the worst conditions. No one seems to know the answer for this and i am having reactions to naloxone. We have the Bupe patch, but i dont know if that will replace suboxone! I hope Canada gets it! ## Hello, When you say Bupe patch, are you referring to Buprenorphine? If so, Subutex contains Buprenorphine so I imagine that they should work in similar ways. I've taken vitamin B12 patches and I could tell that the vitamin was much more effective as a patch vs a pill. Hopefully that will be the case with your "Bupe" patches! I'm not sure as to why Subutex isn't available in Canada though, does anyone else have any informati...

my directions said no asprin and etc 5 days prior to the proceedure in case polups have to be removed should i stop the suboxen as well ## Hi sawbuck, I have read reports of Suboxone patients being advised to stop the Suboxone 24 hours before the procedure, but since the drug is so strong I don't believe that 24 hours would be enough time to rid it from your system. A few days might not even be enough time depending on how long you've been taking it. I can't say for sure if it will cause your blood to thin, I haven't read any reports of that happening. The most important thing is to let your doctor (and the nurse staff who will be assisting you) know that you are taking Suboxone and let them know about your concerns. I've read that if the Suboxone is still in your sy...

I have been on Suboxone for 7 years. I just switched to generic Subutex for financial reason. After 2 weeks on the generic Subutex, I have deveoped sever puritus on the back of my thighs and buttocks. I am pretty sure that the Subutex is the cause, as I have eliminated anything else. Little itchy bumps, all over these areas, but they are not red. ## Hi, Terry! Sorry about the problem you're having. I've had similar reactions myself from allergies over the years, so I know it can be pretty miserable. It's hard to say from just the information in your post, but usually pruritus as a result of a drug reaction is accompanied by a rash. I really think you should have your doctor look at it to be sure. It can happen due to various types of allergies, so it could be that it's u...

Can you get help paying for Subutex prescriptions? Are there any discount coupons out there? ## Unfortunately, I haven't been able to find an assistance program for Subutex, only one for Suboxone. Learn more Suboxone details here. However, on any of the pages of this site, you will find a link for a prescriptions savings card that you can print and use. I am not sure if it will help with Suboxone, but you can check into it. Does anyone else have any ideas? ## Im in the same boat you say your taking subutex?? I know theres a generic form out there called buprenorphin anyways it list that medication on this website medicationcoupons.com says you may get up to 80% off im about to find out and get my card printed wish me luck! ill be back with the results ## i have been on the subutex 8...

This physcian locator service appears to be government run, so the contact information listed should be up to date and accurate: buprenorphine.samhsa.gov/bwns_locator/index.html According to the FDA, Suboxone is the formulation used in the majority of patients. However I'm sure your medical records wil...

I have been on regular suboxone for almost two years now and this month I had to pay nfor my medicine so I got the Generic subutex 8mg and holy cow it stings my tounge and mouth so bad, suboxone never did that. What the heck? Why does it do that and could it be an allergic reaction? ## Subutex doesn't list any side effects pertaining to such symptoms, however I do get the sense that it may be some type of allergic reaction to one or more of the binders/fillers in the medication. This type of response may also indicate a hypersensitivity to the medication. I wouldn't recommend taking any more if you keep responding to it in this way. Because if it really is an allergic reaction or hypersensitivity, the warnings for this drug state that you should contact your doctor immediately (...

I woke up in WD and took a Subutex immideately. After about 45mins I still didn't feel too well, so I took another and feel much better now. Is this okay? I just read of people taking QUARTERS and it kinda freaked me out. Hah. Is it just that I may have a higher tolerance? ## What dosage have you been instructed to take, or are you trying to self-treat? If you're trying to self-treat, you should be aware that Subutex contains a very potent narcotic, you can learn more Buprenorphine details here and it can be very dangerous. Usually, the dosage is very precisely calculated to help prevent withdrawal symptoms. ## I'm self treating but I immediately went to just taking one a day. ## I forgot to mention that I was coming off of H. From doing a little less than a g to 1 Subtutex ...

Where can we buy Generic Subutex in UK? Please can anyone give me some names and address ## Subutex (and it's generic equivalent) are classified as controlled substances available by prescription only. So I think your best bet for obtaining it would simply be to get a script through your doctor. Suboxone may be another possible option if you're finding that Subutex is difficult to get a prescription for. I'm not sure why this is, but many people have stated that doctors are often reluctant to prescribe Subutex over Suboxone as a first consideration. Do you find this to be true in the UK?

I am 100% sure they are 8 mg subutex. I am prescribed these monthly. It's a generic version. My bottles say buprenorphine 8mg sl tabs. Underneath (substitute for subutex 8mg sl tab). ## Hello, The pill in description is indeed Buprenorphine hydrochloride (subutex) 8 mg. It is a semi-synthetic opioid that is used to treat opioid addiction in higher dosages (>2mg) and to control moderate pain in non-opioid tolerant individuals in lower dosages. Manufacturer: Ethypharm (Distr. Hi-Tech Pharmaceutical) I hope this helps!

I have my first appt at a clinic to see if I can be put on subutex. My friend goes and he actually helped me by referring me so that I wouldn't have to wait 6 + months. He told me I need to test positive for opies, which is totally understandable. My question is, will they also test me for buprenoprhine? My friend helps me out by selling me some of his script cos he wants me to quit doing pills also, but I'm afraid it will show up on the ua. I have been taking approximately 6 mgs since Mon the 18th. I only took about 2-3 mgs this morning around 11 am (Sat the 23rd) and will try to do the same til Mon...(3 mgs on Sun am and 3 mgs on Mon am). Will it show up in a urine analysis and will that be a problem, cos I don't want to get my friend in trouble.

I have been suffering for 8 years with sever back and neck pain. After surgery, I still didn't get relief. I was sent to a pain manage Dr. who put me on Narco's and Somas. It help me return to most of my daily living without this horrible pain. I found it slowly stopped working so I increased my dose. After a while I got concerned because I started counting my pills and would panic when I was close to running out. I felt I had a problem so I got with another Dr. who percribed Subutex for 2 reasons. One to get off the Narco's and felt that the Subutex would control the pain. It was easy. No withdrawal's at all from getting of the Narco's. At first I felt that it was helping me with the pain, but once again I found myself taking more because the pain was coming back. I...

Hi everyone.... I was taking Suboxone strips (brand name) for a few years until my doctor recommended I switch to Subutex (Roxanne Labs)) because it was cheaper. I took my first dose on November 20,2012. Two weeks later, I began getting a itchy rash on my left shoulder blade. Then in early December , my right shoulder blade became itchy. After Christmas hives appeared all over my back. By New Years I was awaking in the morning with a red hot flush followed by hives which were now on my rear end and back of my knees. I couldn't just stop taking the Subutex and had no choice but to wait to see my doctor on Jan 2. January 2 I went back on Suboxone strips and thought the hives would stop. Wow was I wrong!!! Today is the 20th day I've been off the subutex. I began taking 10mg of Zyrt...
