Taking Subutex And Percocet Together (Page 30)

My doctor just put me on subutex along with percocet. I've been on percocet for yrs for severe and chronic migraines. He told me to take the subutex and if it doesn't work to take a percocet. I usually take 15 mg percocet at a time. I've read some stuff online that worries me. Some people say if you take percs with subutex you'll go into withdrawals. I went through severe withdrawals with fioricet months ago and I don't want to go through that hell again. I took my first subutex about an hour ago and I still have a migraine so I want to take a perc now. Can I do that or will I get sick?

Took a 2mg subutex at 4 pm yesterday and it is now 8 am. Is it safe to take a percocet 10 mg?

I know for a fact if you take suboxone after taking any opioid you will feel like you are going to die. Trust me. You need to wait till about 24 hrs after your last opioid or you will be sorry. You need to be already withdrawing pretty good before taking subs. I have been taking subs for 10 years. I started with subutex then went to suboxone. When I ran out of pain meds (fentanyl, percocet, oxycodone) I would take a sub and it would be about 10 hrs after pain meds and I still would start sweating, shaking and contemplate suicide, that's how bad you feel. That's why your sub Dr tells you to be already withdrawing for about 24 hrs before starting the first morning of inductions at their office. It's because the buprenorphine has higher receptor attachment and strips any opioid and it's like being raw until your body accepts the new antagonist; it's called precipitated withdrawal and is 10 times worse than a regular withdrawal. That is the truth from someone who has been there.

Hello kkh, how have you been? Fine I hope. It's crazy how some just won't listen, you can even give them the actual website address that clearly states the facts like Suboxone and Subutex are opiates that naloxone is an abuse-deterrent and that buprenorphine is the drug in both and it is actually itself what caused the precipitated withdrawals, and then there's this question, why is a person that's "prescribed" Suboxone/Subutex taking any...any...other opiate much less a benzo, you know though the best teacher is experience. I just wouldn't wish the precipitated experience on anyone. Glad to see you again and hope your doing well.

Plz, I was pregnant and was on subutex and weaned off a month before I had him, a perfectly healthy boy, no withdrawal for the baby. So before u start judging ppl u need to understand what happens. I doubt u have kids or are an addict cuz u would already know what they tell u.

Re: Asmash (# 587)

Subutex will take away the withdrawals, but self medicating is not a good idea, and mixing gabapentin with the Subutex is not a very good idea, it can cause seizures, and other adverse effects, please be careful.

I'm so confused. Are you looking for help or are you just looking for a high? I'm just asking that's all. Just please be careful so you don't end up a statistic.

Re: Comments Submitted (# 586)

Hi, I have a son that's an addict and we talk about it all the time. He's finally crossed over and went to the subs and I'm so proud of him. And he's doing it the right way because he lives here with me. I don't judge anyone in life because I walked my own path and it haven't been Pleasant at times. But I talk to my kids a lot. Have a great day and I'm so happy you had a healthy baby boy. Congrats.

Hello....
I have finally figured out you can't talk to stupid you just can't they're going to do whatever they want to do. Let them get sick as hell and then they may listen. If you're going to take the subs take the subs and just move on. This is ridiculous I think sometimes people are just trying to kill themselves. Just unreal.

People can take Percocet with Subutex but they can't take Percocet with suboxone it won't do anything to them they'll just pee it out and that's it. Educate educate educate yourselves.

I have a couple of Subutex (54 411) and I’m wondering firstly if it is okay to take one (or just partial about 8 hours after taking oxycodone? Will it work, or make me sick? I am just wanting to take a little so I don’t go into withdrawals at work the next day while I’m waiting for my hydrocodone script to be filled. Secondly, how long do I have to wait after taking Subutex to take hydrocodone?

You will not get sick... I used to take the Subutex with opiates so I wouldn't overdose. Suboxone would send u into precipitated withdrawal.

Hello.
After being on Suboxone for a while how hard is it to get a doctor to give you pain medications again? I'm 81 years old and I'm so desperate at this point.

Hi, Why do you want to go back on pain meds, and why did you get on Suboxone to begin with? You don't have to answer, but this is what the doctor will ask.. How long have you been on Suboxone? I'm just curious because I've been on pain meds for years and I switched to Belbuca 3 months ago, and it does help with the pain.. Look up Belbuca, it might be good for you? Good luck, and please write back?
